Parco Fluviale Regionale del Taro

Corte di Giarola was acquired in December 1997, thanks to the funding from the Italian Ministry of the Environment, Regione Emilia-Romagna, the Province of Parma and the associated municipalities, as well as from the managing Consorzio Parco del Taro; since then, the whole monumental complex has been protected in order to preserve its structure and open it to public use.

In 1999, Corte di Giarola started to house the Park Offices and Visitor Center, consisting of an exhibit area and an auditorium.
