Buried Vehicles in Underground Naples: Story and Conservation

Vehicles surfaced in tunnels due to collapses and informal dumping after the war. The Galleria’s team stabilizes them as part of a historical tableau.

Conservation

• Stabilize positions; prevent further decay.
• Control humidity and contact surfaces.
• Interpret the finds with contextual signage.

Reading Material Evidence

• Corrosion patterns tell exposure histories.
• Embedded angles indicate collapse mechanics.

Perspective: These aren’t “attractions” alone — they are evidence of urban life and crisis.

Bottom Line

The buried vehicles tell a modern layer of Naples’ underground story.
