Museo Monumento al Deportato politico e razziale
Museo Monumento al Deportato politico e razziale, Holocaust memorial museum in Castello dei Pio, Carpi, Italy.
The museum spans thirteen rooms within Castello dei Pio, displaying objects, letters, and messages from people deported during World War II. The collections document the fates of those transported from the nearby Fossoli transit camp.
The museum was inaugurated in 1973 by President Giovanni Leone as a memorial to victims of Nazi-fascist deportations from Fossoli transit camp between 1943 and 1944. It was created to preserve memory of the suffering during those years.
The walls display works by international artists including Pablo Picasso and Renato Guttuso addressing themes of peace and resistance. These artistic contributions show how the memory of this period is shared across languages and borders.
Visitors can arrange visits through phone or email, with guided tours available throughout the year except in August. Planning ahead helps secure a spot for your visit.
The Sala dei Nomi holds fourteen thousand names of Italian deportees etched into the walls and ceilings. Outside, sixteen stone pillars bear the names of concentration camps.
