Tur audio A. Entrance / Historical Introduction

Our visit to the Museo Gotica Toscana begins here.

At the entrance, you’ll find decorations from military units that have visited the museum, alongside memorabilia, medals, and personal items belonging to veterans who fought here, donated with gratitude by their families.

Now, let’s step into the atmosphere of war, retracing in brief the path of the Italian Campaign, which began in July 1943, and led to the Battles of Passo del Giogo in September 1944.
How did the fighting reach these mountains of the Apennines? The answer lies in the story we are about to hear.
