Monumento ai Mille, Monument commemorating Italian unification in Marsala, Italy
The Monumento ai Mille features a 47-meter-high main mast and marble sails forming the number 1000, with a 5-meter statue of Giuseppe Garibaldi.
The monument marks the landing site where Garibaldi and his thousand volunteers arrived on May 11, 1860, initiating the campaign that led to Italian unification.
The monument includes an exhibition space displaying photographs and artifacts from Garibaldi's volunteers, collected from the Garibaldian museum in San Pietro Convent.
