The door tour of Viterbo, which is one year old by now, continues with some old, weary doors that have seen plenty but are not telling.

What has happened here since last Thursday? Three days ago was the anniversary of the Last Carefree Day, from which are also today’s photos, and that required a special post. And yesterday I posted some photo proof of how spring is being unleashed upon us with the countdown of trees in bloom.
Today it’s the door day again and we are in the last hour of our Viterbo visit. I’m quite tired by now and my feet are hurting, but the town has no intention of ending nor does it manage or even attempt to hide its doors from me. They may be old and have seen times come and go, but they are still here and see if they are going anywhere any time soon.
The establishments and properties vary in name, size, dustbin placement and intent, and end in a surprising discovery. And we have coffee at some point as well. Welcome.
Just opposite of that Municipality arch from the end of the last week’s post. I would happily own half of clothes this colour. So much work to build this door just so. The world’s most unfortunate dustbin placement. I almost moved it away. Same door. Better this way. A similar dustbinless one. In case I ever need an American bar and steak house. Not quite Zara. This one has cracked itself up. This one patiently stands the test of time. This one is positively thriving. This one is a little green with envy. Whereas this one is rather hopelessly holeful. Next we have this scene. I almost didn’t take this photo but then realised Dan might appreciate this machine. I don’t think they have it for snow. A shiny door example. A door in a door in a door. This one makes Flavia seem tiny. A sombre ensemble. And finally, the Museum of the Knights Templar, of all things. In case anybody asks you, now you can’t say you don’t know.
For Thursday Doors challenge hosted by Dan at No Facilities

Such unique and beautiful doors! Thinking I need to spend a bit more time noticing doors.

Ahh, Irene, this is really good to hear. 🙂 I suppose this is the highest praise there could be: that my doors could make you more attuned to doors in general. Thank you!

These are wonderful doors, Manja. I liked your caption about clothing like the door color. Some of my favorite tee-shirts are close to that color. I agree about the dustbin – that should not be allowed, or we should be allowed to move them without fear. I do appreciate the small loader, but they shouldn’t have parked it in front of the door! The door in a door…is very bad for the structure of the door., but an interesting look.
By the way, I still keep getting bounced around if I try typing this comment on you blog. I’m using Notepad and pasting it in.

Thank you, Dan. I really appreciate that you make the effort of writing a comment even though it’s a struggle. The small loader! I was sure you’d know how to call it. Yes, it should load off from there.

Imagine being a dustbin in such a beautiful place — the views are stunning, but there you are, just a dustbin, people judging you like that 😉

I noticed that above the green door is a concrete frame but above the concrete is an arch. I wonder what this doorway looked like originally. Your comments are so entertaining! I am drawn to the doors that are worn, and I think you like them too. This is a lovely collection from your Last Carefree Day. ❤
