Abstract:
This work presents the results of a microclimatic analysis in the church of San Panfilo in
Tornimparte, in the Abruzzo region, Italy. The church of San Panfilo, dating from the XII–XIII century,
preserves in the presbytery some marvelous frescoes of Saturnino Gatti (1494). A measurement
campaign was organized from February 2021 to April 2022 with the aim of investigating the microclimate inside the church in view of the organization of fresco restoration. The monitoring activity
was performed with intensive measurements on specific days during the year and with continuous
measurements throughout the whole year. The main microclimatic parameters, relative humidity
and temperature, were monitored in various sites inside and outside the church. Some physical
quantities, such as dew point temperature, dew point spread and specific humidity, were computed
from measured data. Measured and computed data permitted to evaluate the daily and monthly
values, their evolution during the year, the daily fluctuations and delay times caused by the building.
The resulting discussion allowed to identify potentially dangerous events for the conservation of the
frescoes. Moreover, the historic climate inside the church was detected.
