(2235) Vittore Outer Main-belt Asteroid
Discovered on 5 April 1924 by K. Reinmuth at Heidelberg.
Named in honor of the Osservatorio S. Vittore, Bologna, where this object was rediscovered in 1979. It was as a result of the extensive and careful series of observations there by a dedicated group of amateur astronomers that the earlier observations could be identified and the object permanently numbered.Naming citation (MPC 5524), IAU / Minor Planet Center, via NASA/JPL
