This wash house has been in use since 1891. It was constructed because the homes at that time did not have running water.
The tank is made of local Zandobbio marble. The roof has a cast iron frame covered by steel sheets.

As I was wandering around the ancient side streets in this old part of the hill top town I came across this hidden intriguing place. Set in a little square area the construction was apparently a sort of communal laundry for washing clothes. I could imagine it being a cool, refreshing place in the summer with available running water and sufficient shade. Probably also a nice place for the local townsfolk to have a good chinwag.

This wash area was apparently used in medieval times by the ladies of the town to wash clothes and it is in remarkably good shape. It was fed by one of 2 ancient aqueducts (some parts of which still exist under the walls of the Citta Alta). For some reason, this site is not included by many of the tour guides according to the tourist office (which is within 100 mtrs of it). Whilst it is obviously not as huge and magnificent as many of the other sites afforded by the city, it is a real pity more is not made of it's history and that it does not have its own placard. It is a place where in your imagination you can almost hear, touch and smell the washerwomen of a bygone age.

Ages ago, women used to wash clothes there, and chat away, talk about neighbors, who went with hom, who did this and who did that. In a way, Facebook took over not the laundry pasrt, but the chat part of this location. Try to explain it to your kids. Also a good place to take a rest.

The area is nice, right behind Piazza Vechia. The trees and old buildings that surround it are great, and it is a good place to reast.

wouldn't go out of my way to visit it but whilst wandering the streets you will happen across it. Seating nearby for a short rest.

Bergamo in general has done excellent job in marking their visitor's landmarks with details. I don't understand how this ancient bath was divided with dividers that I can't imagine how it's used in old days. Close to main street.

Since La Citta Alta is generally an attractive area to visit, you will find a lot of things worth your attention. And I doubt that you will find a soft spot in your heart for the Lavatorio. It just sort of disappears in the noise. But don't let it stand out in your way. The square itself is nice for a short stop an rest, maybe grabbing a small bite.

We had our lunch in this lovely courtyard on a beautiful sunny Spring day. Easy to find on a side street near the funicular station.
