About this experience

This tour is suitable for history enthusiasts and those interested in the impact of war on urban landscapes, but may not suit individuals looking for a light or casual experience. Participants will visit landmarks affected by bombings and learn about figures such as Pino Lella, who played a crucial role in aiding Jewish families during the war.
