About

The “Casa della Resistenza” stands in the Remembrance and Peace Park in Verbania Fondotoce. This spot, where on 20 June 1944 the Nazis shot 43 partisans, is now devoted to remembering and studying the Resistance in this area. The place is dominated by a tall cross, symbolising sacrifice, and watching over the long wall in which are engraved the names of over 1,200 partisans who gave their lives in the liberation struggle in this area.

The Memorial Building (exhibitions) is open to the public from Monday to Friday from 3 to 6.30 pm, and on Sunday from 2.30 to 6 pm.
