The Audiovisual Museum of the Resistance of the provinces of Massa Carrara and La Spezia, located in the municipality of Fosdinovo, is a significant site of remembrance dedicated to the Second World War and the Resistance. Both provinces, awarded the Gold Medal for Military Valor, made a major contribution to the restoration of freedom and democracy.
The museum combines oral narration with modern video projection technologies to convey the memory of historical events through the testimonies of those who lived them. Rather than being a simple collection of artifacts, the exhibition focuses on preserving and sharing personal stories. The video testimonies are organized into thematic groups that follow a chronological progression—covering the rise of fascism, Nazi massacres, civil resistance, the tragedies of war and deportation, and finally, the Liberation.
