The Most Holy Trinity

The “chiesa della Santissima Trinità” (church of the Most Holy Trinity) in “Borgo dei Cappuccini”.
The symbol of the Franciscan Order on the gates of the church. This 1982 sundial celebrates the six centuries of the presence of the Order in Livorno. By the way, if adjusted for DST, the time was right.

Sine Sole Sileo

This elaborate sundial decorates the façade of the local Technical Nautical Institute “Alfredo Cappellini” in “Piazza Giovine Italia”.
The Institute has its roots in a Nautical School, established in 1766 by the Grand Duke Peter Leopold of Lorraine for the instruction of seamen. Founded by Decree on 13 December 1863, the school was the first technical institute in the Province of Livorno.
The Latin inscription “sine sole sileo” means that without the sun I am silent. We have already seen something similar in another post about a sundial.

Nisi Serenas

This is another sight I pass walking to work, a sundial on the bell tower of the Madonna church in “Via della Madonna”. “Horas non numero nisi serenas” is a latin motto often found on sundials and translates: I do not count the hours unless they are sunny. “Johannes et Erica Carta fecerunt - Robertus Palandri delineavit - A.D. MCMXCVII” are the Latin form of the names of the makers, the draftsman and the year of construction, 1997.
