Refurbishment

The station underwent extensive refurbishment from January 2006 to October 2007, when escalators and electrical, safety and communication systems were upgraded. During the works, archaeological remains were found, and this prolonged their duration. Upon reopening, the station was given the new name Manzoni–Museo della Liberazione.

Editorial analysis

Why this record matters

The phrase “rome Metro station” supplies a clear boundary for inquiry. It also exposes the unanswered questions: who defined that boundary, when it became stable and which sources sit outside it.

Evidence profile

Place names and jurisdictional language are key evidence: both can reveal earlier catalogue descriptions and overlooked record series. The source revision retrieved here is dated Aug 18, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q666041. Authority coordinates are 41.891, 12.507. 2 of 2 selected statements include explicit references; 0 carry qualifiers and 0 use preferred rank. The first chronological checks are 1980, 2006 and 2007.

Critical limits

A single description cannot reconcile every naming convention, rebuilding phase or administrative transfer associated with a place. The source lead contains qualifying language; that uncertainty should survive quotation, summary and reuse. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.

How to read it

Treat names, boundaries and functions as historically changeable. Maps, plans, inventories and administrative records can clarify what the place meant at different dates.
