Lungotevere Vittorio Gassman, already named lungotevere Papareschi, is the stretch of lungotevere that connects via Antonio Pacinotti to via Pietro Blaserna, in Rome's Portuense district.[1]

The lungotevere is dedicated to the Genoese actor and director Vittorio Gassman, who moved as a young man in Rome and died there in 2000; it was established by resolution of the City Council of 29 December 2006.[2] Previously the Lungotevere took its name from the noble Papareschi (also de Papa or Paparoni) Roman medieval family.[3]
