THE WAR MEMORIAL


Erected to honour the memory of the Fallen from the First World War, the War Memorial is a work by Angelo Zanelli, the sculptor who also designed the “Altare della Patria” in Rome. 
It is made by a bronze frieze showing the stages and activities of  

human lifeand, in the centre, a winged Victory swooping down on a plough.
The monument, whose total length is about 50 metres, decorates the former entrance of the stadium, which owes it its name (Stadium “of the Victory”).
