Gals on Saturday damaged the roof of
the Vasari Corridor, the famed covered and elevated passage
linking Palazzo Vecchio to Palazzo Pitti in Florence via the
Uffizi and Ponte Vecchio.
Municipal police picked up bits of masonry blown off the
corridor, which will be replaced as soon as the wind dies down,
local officials said.
The one-kilometre-long enclosed corridor was built in 1565 to a
design by Renaissance artist and art historian Giorgio Vasari.
