dc.descriptionHigh redshift radio galaxies are great cosmological tools for pinpointing the most massive objects in the early Universe: massive forming galaxies, active super--massive black holes and proto--clusters. We report on deep narrow--band imaging and spectroscopic observations of several z > 2 radio galaxy fields to investigate the nature of giant Ly-alpha nebulae centered on the galaxies and to search for over--dense regions around them. We discuss the possible implications for our understanding of the formation and evolution of massive galaxies and galaxy clusters.
