Museo Storico della Linea Gotica
The Museo Storico della Linea Gotica (Gothic Line Museum) in Casinina is a museum and documentation center which presents the history of the German line of fortifications along the northern Apennine Mountains known as the Gothic Line, and the Allied attacks and advances on these positions in 1944 and 1945 including the nearby Battle of Rimini in September 1944. The museum is located along the former site of the Gothic Line, including the preserved remains of a German bunker and a Park of Memory built upon the site of a former German minefield.
The museum displays a collection of more than 3000 weapons, uniforms, equipment, and military vehicles dating from the construction of the Gothic Line and the Allied attacks, as well as a photographic archive. The museum was established by Professor and Knight of the Republic Tiberi Giovanni in 1992.
