House of Memory and History, History documentation museum in Trastevere, Rome, Italy.
The House of Memory and History is a cultural institution of the Municipality of Rome, inaugurated on 24 March 2006, the anniversary of the Fosse Ardeatine massacre. It houses museum spaces and a library, and its activities and management involve associations that preserve the memory of antifascism, the Resistance and the Liberation War, including ANED, ANEI, ANPI, ANPPIA, FIAP, the Christian partisans' association, IRSIFAR, the Circolo Gianni Bosio and the Italian Society of Oral History.
The museum was established in 2006 to collect and preserve documents and memories of Italian history for public access. It emerged from a desire to safeguard personal and social events for future generations.
The house is run jointly by associations that were direct witnesses of Rome's antifascist and democratic experience, including ANED, ANEI, ANPI, ANPPIA, FIAP, the Christian partisans and IRSIFAR. Some donated their archives to the institution. The Circolo Gianni Bosio also keeps sound and audiovisual recordings here, and the Italian Society of Oral History coordinates its work on site.
