Lungotevere Guglielmo Oberdan Explained

Lungotevere Guglielmo Oberdan is the stretch of Lungotevere that links Piazza Monte Grappa to Piazza del Fante in Rome (Italy), in the Della Vittoria quarter.[1]

The Lungotevere is dedicated to the irredentist patriot Guglielmo Oberdan from Trieste, who deserted the Austrian army and was hanged after his attempt to murder Franz Joseph I of Austria.

The Lungotevere was established as per Governor resolution on December 19, 1940.[2]

The Lungotevere is nearby the Ponte del Risorgimento; in the surroundings (Piazza Monte Grappa) rises the Convitto Nazionale Vittorio Emanuele II.
