Museo-Rifigio della Resistenza Bergamasca

The Museo-Rifigio della Resistenza Bergamasca (Bergamo Resistance Museum) at Malga Lunga on the Monte di Sovere is a former stronghold of local resistance to German and fascist occupation from 1943 to 1945, and contains a permanent museum exhibit on the resistance. A defensible and elevated position, Malga Lunga was occupied by the approximately 15-strong 13 Martiri di Lovere (13 Martyrs of Lovere) group, a part of the larger 53rd Garibaldi Brigade, in 1944. The position was attacked on November 17, 1944, by Italian Social Republic forces serving in the Tagliamento Legion. The combat resulted in the deaths of some members of the group and the surrender of others; on November 21, six prisoners were executed in the nearby Costa Volpino cemetery.

The site today contains a memorial to the battle and the fallen partisans, along with a multimedia exhibit on the 13 Martiri di Lovere group as well as other aspects of the local Bergamo Resistance: additional local resistance movements, lists and records of partisans, and the effects of occupation and resistance on the local civilian population.
