- Abstract:
- This research article discusses the importance of environmental monitoring to ensure the health and well-being of humans and ecosystems, with a specific focus on cultural heritage sites, which are susceptible to damage by pollution and microclimatic conditions. The Beata Vergine dei Miracoli sanctuary, a notable cultural heritage site in Italy, was studied to analyse the environmental quality of the site and any changes in environmental conditions during the COVID-19 pandemic. The study monitored different environmental parameters from 20 January to 11 April 2023. The data collected were evaluated, and the results were compared with previous campaigns. This study highlights the importance of environmental monitoring in cultural heritage site conservation, particularly in response to global challenges like climate change and pandemics.
