Fondo Ambiente Italiano
The Fondo Ambiente Italiano (FAI) is the National Trust of Italy.
The organisation was established in 1975 by Fondo Ambiente Italiano,[1] based on the model of the National Trust of England, Wales, & Northern Ireland. It is a private non-profit organisation and has over 190,000 members as of 2018[2]. Its purpose is to protect elements of Italy's physical heritage which might otherwise be lost.
Properties
As of early 2007 the organisation had twenty-two properties including castles, gardens, monastic buildings and other cultural assets. These are spread throughout Italy, but the majority are in the north of the country.
