Origin and History:
The Museo della Resistenza originates from a mountain holiday-camp house built in 1984 on a land that a private gave to the town of Sarzana. Thanks to the volunteer work of citizens and ex-partisans, the holiday-camp house has hosted thousands of children from the post war period to the summer of 1971.
Due to the deterioration of the building, in 1994 the ANPI of Sarzana, in agreement with the town council, proposed to assign the house to the Museo della Resistenza delle province della Spezia e di Massa Carrara, awarded with the golden metal for the Military Value and for their contribution to the defence of freedom and democracy.
Numerous public institutions, associations and private citizens collaborated to renovate the building transforming it into a monument for peace, in an area where violent fights between partisans, German and fascist soldiers took place and that witnessed destructions and massacres of unarmed people.
Since 2000, the opening year, the Museum includes a modern audio-visual installation and multimedia supports that allow historical investigation and didactic paths on the topic of the Resistance and the construction of Italian democracy.
One of the main purposes of this installation consists in offering a new vision of the Resistance capable of attracting the interest of a young public.
In fact, the statute of the Associazione Museo Storico della Resistenza asserts that the association “promote the cultural and historical enrichment of young generations”. The projection of the enlarged faces of the testimonies is aimed at emphasising their expressivity in order to transmit not only their stories but also their memories. [1]
The museum’s tour is developed in one room and is organized around a big table with the projections of the faces of the protagonists of the Resistance. The visitors can activate the projections and the telling of the historical happenings that are divided into different themes: the Calendar, the book of peasants, the partisans’ photography album and the book of women. .
The testimonies are not only the tales of the partisans, they are also wounds and coarse images of the deportees portrayed on the mug shots of that time.
The display ends with a projection that shows the places of the bombings and the areas of the partisan groups actionon moving maps of the provinces of Massa Carrara and La Spezia.
The Museum is dedicated to the memory of the partisan captains Alessandro Brucellaria "Memo" and Flavio Bertone "Walter" and of all those who fought for freedom.
Since 2012 the Associazione Archivi della Resistenza - Circolo Edoardo Bassignani has been administrating the Museum.
