Fighting at the Giogo Pass in September, the Allies aimed to reach the Po Valley by the end of 1944: the British advancing on the eastern front of the Apennines, the Americans on the western. The reality proved quite different. Bologna would be liberated only seven months later. The Germans did not yield a single meter without a fight.
The Sala del Giogo brings together uniforms, weapons, equipment, and personal belongings of the units engaged on the pass and the other mountains of the Tuscan-Romagna Apennines. Many artifacts were unearthed during excavations on the battlefields; others were donated by the families of soldiers, fallen or survivors of the war.
Each display case in this room preserves fragments of war and human stories that deserve to be heard.
