Museo Monumento al Deportato politico e razziale

The museum extends across thirteen rooms within Castello dei Pio, displaying artifacts, letters, and messages from deportees during World War II.

Inaugurated in 1973 by President Giovanni Leone, the museum commemorates victims of Nazi-fascist deportations from the nearby Fossoli transit camp between 1943 and 1944.

The walls feature graffiti works by international artists including Pablo Picasso, Renato Guttuso, and Fernand Léger, addressing themes of peace and resistance.

The museum accepts visitor reservations through phone or email, offering guided tours throughout the year except during the month of August.

The Sala dei Nomi contains fourteen thousand names of Italian deportees etched onto walls and ceilings, while sixteen stone steles outside list concentration camp names.
