The Gothic Line was thedefensive system built in 1944 all along the Central Apennines by the German troops in order to block the advancing Allies. Today it’s the core centre of the “places of the memory” and represents a commemorative dimension of war and Resistance. The territory of Badia Tedalda, in Valtiberina, was considered strategically important by the Germans and today represents the “heart” of the Gothic Line.
Furthermore, inside the Local Museum of Tuscan Alta Valmarecchia, the Documentation Center of the Gothic Line has been set up: a space equipped with multimedia installations through which visitors can access numerous informative and audiovisual contents related to the Gothic Line and, in particular, the events involving Badia Tedalda and its residents.
Guided tours, excursions, and educational workshops for schools are available upon reservation.
