As we were walking around today, we came across this memorial on the outside of the Palazzo Communale, which is the community services building (for lack of a better term) on the main square near our hotel. On the wall of the building are three large panels bearing photos of approximately 2200 people who were killed resisting the German occupation of Bologna during WWII. Many of them were actually killed right there in the square. It was interesting how they created the memorial - they must have taken photos of the people and then transferred them onto ceramic tiles that were then put into the memorial.
