Local municipalities in Italy are holding ceremonies to commemorate victims of Nazi-fascist actions and military personnel deported to concentration camps during World War II.

In Galatro, the National Association of Former Interned in Nazi Camps organized an event titled ‘40 Storie di Dignità – Una Scelta di Libertà’ to honor forty Italian Military Internees (IMI) who were captured after September 8, 1943. The ceremony included presenting a ‘Pergamena della Memoria’ (Scroll of Memory) to families, with plans announced for a dedicated monument in Cittanova.

Similarly, the city of Alba scheduled commemorations to honor over 1,300 military personnel deported to German concentration camps. The program includes wreath-laying ceremonies at the Alpini monument and the former Caserma Govone to remember individuals executed by German forces during the national liberation struggle.
