Stories Bologna
In a garden of the family Bucchi was a fig tree that gave its name to the street.
In this short street, corner of Via Marsala, takes place in 1572, a nasty business that for the characters involved, takes on the colors of the scandal.
One night, Joseph Grassi, Bolognese nobleman who lives in what is now the officers' club, ... you can see the road blocked by two thugs who, tight-lipped, with a couple of stabs send him the creator. Hastens the sheriff with the warriors. The two goons, Hercules and Roberto Torregiani Colliva, are arrested. The mother of Torregiani, when questioned, reported that his son, the night of the crime, went as usual at the home of farmer Cesare Lambertini, Via degli Orefici. To cause the ambush was apparently an unhappy phrase grease, turning to Lambertini, would say: \u0026lt;You're a son of cow>. In turn, the Torregiani admits having received from the "peasant" 14 gold crowns, "because if you go with God."
Lambertini, who fled from Bologna, arming a pass and bringing to justice, giving a different version of events: \u0026lt;Torregiani and neck are coming to dinner at my house. Then we decided to go for una visitina dalla “ Villana”, una cara amica che abita in Borgo san Martino. Cammin facendo, Il Torregiani si è fermato per un impellente bisogno, s’è scontrato con uno “ sconosciuto” ( il Grassi), l’esito è stato drammatico >. Il tribunale ha elementi sufficienti per una esemplare condanna a morte, ma il Colliva, provvisto di mezzi, si allontana da Bologna; il Lambertini salva la testa con il pagamento di 3 mila scudi nelle mani del legato di Forza e fa promessa di far la pace con la famiglia Grassi.
Vuoi vedere che a fare le spese sarà il Torregiani? Così va il mondo, anche nel 1572.
Goito combines street of Via Marsala, district san Vitale, Irnerio.
