CASSINO

The town of Cassino is located halfway between Rome and Naples. For centuries it has been a kind of gateway to the Italian capital. The hill of Monte Cassino rises to a height of 519 meters above sea level. It was here that the bloodiest and fiercest battle of World War II was fought from January to May 1944. At the site of the monastery passed the Gustav Line, the crossing of which opened the way to Rome for the Allies and moved the front, which had been stalled for long months.

When visiting Monte Cassino, it is worth starting with the Benedictine monastery, who established their abbey here as early as the 6th century. During the memorable battles of 1944, the hilltop monastery was virtually completely destroyed. Fortunately, it was possible to salvage much of the historical furnishings from the basilica and valuable works of art and manuscripts. Today they can be admired in the local museum. The Cathedral Basilica of Monte Cassino itself has been painstakingly rebuilt, preserving its pre-war appearance. An attraction that few people know about is the vast Natural Park surrounding the hill. Its area is nearly 700 hectares. In addition to the famous Polish War Cemetery, other important Polish monuments can be found on its grounds - to the "Skorpion" Armored Regiment and the 3rd Carpathian Rifle Division, as well as several scenic walking trails.

In the town of Cassino itself, you can also spot a few Polish accents - among the most important and most visited are a small museum dedicated to Wladyslaw Anders and a monument to Wojtek the Bear. There are also the remains of a Roman temple and amphitheater from the 1st century BC and an early medieval fortress.

PIOTRKOW TRYBUNALSKI

Piotrków Trybunalski is a city in central Poland in Lodz Province on the Strava River. Its name derives from the name "Piotr," and the segment "Trybunalski" from the fact that the city for more than 200 years was the seat of the first supreme court in the Republic, the Crown Tribunal.
