The 29th Waffen Grenadier Division Exhibition


  • Real Collegio Lucca (map)

Real Collegio hosts an exhibition dedicated to one of the most complex and least-known episodes of World War II in Italy: the story of the 29th Waffen Grenadier Division of the SS, composed of Italian volunteers after the armistice of September 8, 1943.

The exhibition aims to analyze the historical context, ideological motivations, and wartime events of these units, placing them within the broader context of the German occupation and the Italian Social Republic. It offers an opportunity for critical exploration and understanding the tragic fractures that marked the country during the Second World War.

Held in the central rooms on the ground floor.
