Шаблон:Main The village is the place where Benito Mussolini and his lover Claretta Petacci were executed on 28 April 1945, in front of a manor house named Villa Belmonte. The execution was carried out by local resistance fighters (partigiani), who had captured the dictator at Dongo (often erroneously considered to be the place where the execution actually took place).[1]
