“Via Grande”: “Automatic door, do not push”.
“Oriolino” is an archaic Tuscan form for small clock.

Great walk! I like the word spingere.
Such artistic items in your city.
Five great photos. The last one seems a child's toy.
I enjoyed today's walk. The coat of arms and the door knocker are especially fine.
I LOVE the bright blue "ape," and thanks for the link. What an interesting history!!
I just love to see where your walks will take us. Great door knocker too.
I assume that there was a small clock somewhere in days past.
I like the idea of a an automatic door that opens when you use a beautiful knocker, lol! Great walk!
Another great walk, VP! Obviously, my favourite is knocker in the first photo:)
I have already learnt something new today....
Thanks for the interesting post and the link to "Ape".
Funny to have the fancy old knocker on an old door, but with automatic opening.
I remember my first experience with such a door in Neuchatel--it creeped me out. No one there, but it opened before me.
so much art...so little time to see it all...enjoyed the walk!
The coat of arms is gorgeous!
Mai sentito dire l'oriolino...la foto con l'Ape è davvero indovinata anche per i colori! Ciao, Arianna
Love the first photo. Can we at least use the knocker as long as we don't push the door? :D
Interesting items. I'd like to have a coat-of-arms on my house. ;)
The detail of the door in your first shot is awesome and I also like the coat of arms!

My favourite here is the photo of the 2 windows.
If you push the door, the lion will bite you!
