Two tourists, aged 61 and 44, were recently caught attempting to carve their names on the base of the staircase of the Trevi Fountain.

The two were reported for damaging a historical building and fined €450.

The individuals, who were from Germany and Slovakia are also temporarily banned from visiting the monument.

Grazie a @PLRomaCapitale per aver fermato due turisti che tentavano di incidere i propri nomi sulla Fontana di Trevi. Per loro denuncia, multa e 'Daspo' previsto da nostro nuovo Regolamento Polizia Urbana. Nessuna tolleranza per chi deturpa o danneggia i monumenti di Roma.
