Abstract
  • Built on the first half of the XVI century, under Federico Gonzaga, Duke of Mantova, Palazzo Te is one of the most relevant Italian monuments belonging to the UNESCO World Heritage List. Within the Palazzo, the Camera dei Giganti (Chamber of the Giants) hosts a famous XVI century Giulio Romano fresco. Concerns have been raised regarding in particular for the movement of the Fruttiere external wall and for some fissures that have formed across the above mentioned fresco. To this point a monitoring survey has been undertaken to detect and qualify the vibrations caused by erathquakes and antrophic activity. Palazzo Te is situated in Mantova, which is characterized by a low-to-moderate seismicity. Mantova has been struck in the past by several earthquakes with an estimated magnitude of up to 6 (e.g. the 1693 Goito earthquake, the 1951 Lodigiano earthquake). On 1117 the zone was hit by the strongest earthquake in the area with an estimated MCS degree of 9 and Magnitude around 6.5. Seismic hazard is estimated as 0.1 g PGA for 474 years return period. Nevertheless even weaker earthquakes could result in significant damages due to the poor soil conditions coupled with the geomorphological aspects of the Po plain as emphatized by Bragato et al (2011): \"... Recent moderate-sized earthquakes (ML <= 5.2) that occurred in northern Italy demonstrate that the currently available ground-motion prediction equations (GMPEs) largely understimate shaking in the Po Plain region. ...\" (literal)
