Tod’s group is proud to have taken part in the restoration of the colosseum, a true historical symbol of Italy. By doing this, the house is supporting the artistic and cultural heritage of Italy.  The restoration of the colosseum is a project which was developed for the commissioner of the archaeological areas of Rome and Ostia Antica in agreement with Rome’s archaeological heritage department. The project was implemented thanks to the involvement of the Tod’s group.

The first phase of the works has now been completed and was carried out on the northern and southern façades, totalling a surface area of approximately 13.300 mq. It also included the replacement of the current arch enclosure system with new gates.

The plan or works will continue with the restoration of the colosseum’s passageways and underground vaults. A utility system will be implemented within compliance testing and a service centre for visitors will be built, allowing visitors to access from the outer area of the colosseum as opposed to where this stands now, within the walls of the site.
