Affiliated WWF Oasis Castel Romano - April 2024-

"Together for the Oasis of Castel Romano" is the project launched by Castel Romano Designer Outlet in collaboration with WWF Italy and Roma Natura for the redevelopment of the adjacent area: a green zone to be cared for, protected and discovered, rich in natural fauna and flora. A preserved place that foxes, badgers and numerous birds have made their habitat. A special gift that McArthurGlen Castel Romano Designer Outlet wanted to give to the city of Rome and to existing and future visitors. The Oasis will be officially inaugurated in April 2024. Stay tuned!

OUR OASIS

A preserved place to discover


TOGETHER FOR THE OASIS
Our commitment for the Environment

The Affiliated WWF Oasis Castel Romano is an 11-hectare area rich in natural resources to be explored and protected. The project was born from the desire of Castel Romano Designer Outlet to enhance an area previously unknown to the public and make it accessible to the local community through special routes. A protected place where children can be educated to respect the environment and spend a pleasant day in nature. A new project that concretely underlines our commitment to environmental protection in line with EVOLVE, McArthurGlen's program for a more sustainable future.

The area will be accessible from 5 different points, with the main entrance at parking lot C5, and will be enriched by areas dedicated to different activities to discover. The Oasis will be open to visitors soon ! Visit these pages or follow us on our Facebook and Instagram channels at @CastelRomanoDesignerOutlet to be informed in real time about the news of the Oasis.

WWF OASES IN ITALY
The will to preserve our natural heritage

WWF Italy's first oasis was inaugurated in 1967 when, following a decision by the National Council, WWF acquired hunting rights on Lake Burano to make it an oasis for bird conservation. Since then, in just over 50 years, over 100 oases have been created, covering a total of 35,000 hectares of land and visited by over 350,000 people each year. The oases were created with the intention of preserving and protecting the natural heritage of the country, but they are also places of encounter thanks to the organization of educational and creative events to raise awareness of the importance of sustainability and environmental protection.

THE "FELIPACCHIOTTO" PROJECT
Felipe Cardeña X Castel Romano Oasis

"Felipacchiotto" was the project of Spanish artist Felipe Cardeña in collaboration with WWF: an unpublished work to promote the WWF Oasis as a place to preserve protected species such as the wolf (Canis lupus). In his works, Felipe mixes elements from different worlds. He decontextualizes the figures to put them in a collage pattern - full of flowers and decorative elements - such as excerpts from paintings of art history, comics, oriental drawings and writings, to the point that he constructs on canvas a melting pot that mixes East and West, past and present.
Today, his public and urban art actions are carried out by a crew of boys – the Felipe Cardeña Crew – who recreate the floral and colorful modules of his paintings with different techniques, from collage to stencil to painting in the form of publications. Come and discover the work of Felipe's Crew at Castel Romano Designer Outlet from 21st September!
