Another priceless thread Marco!

Often wonder about the rebuilding, especially when remembering how handsome and perfect the Abbey is today, compared to the destruction described in books, or illustrated in wartime photos. A work of great care and love.

Thanks very much,
John

Thank you for your kind words Thomas...
The only thing that holding me is my imperfect knowledge of English language, otherwise I will do much more in this forum. But one day will speak as a cadet in Oxford ... maybe

Great pictures of the great place,Marco..
I spent 2 days in Cassino last week during my holiday in Italy visiting the abbey,war cemeteries and the museum in the city.Very impresive places.
I am sure that one day I will return to those places again...
Kind regards,Gustav

Hi Jeff...very simple: I live really close to Cassino and I go to every celebration (20 january for the battle on Rapido River; 15 february for the bombardment of the abbey; 15 march for the destruction of the city; in may for the last battle. For me it's easy to meet civilians and veterans who fought this battle.
Regards
Marco
