I think any Italian insurer will fall about laughing if someone tried to insure a ruin... I assume you mean public liability - if so I would try a British/European insurer first.

Got an Italian bank?

The only insurance which a rational being would take out on a ruin is third party liability - and I think this is what you are concerned about. (This covers bits of your building falling on innocent heads - it doesn't cover anything once you have engaged a contractor to repair it.) Usually your bank will offer a minimal cover - should be less than €50 a year - it is called something like responsibilita familiare. Maybe other insurance companies do this too, try www.genialloyd.it or perhaps even www.6sicuro.it could give you a lead. Try these sites even if you don't speak Italian, they are fairly obvious and even if you get lost you will have picked up some insurance vocabulary without having spent any money.
