	Dear Kitty. Some blog :: SS war criminals sentenced for massacre in Marzabotto, Italy :: February :: 2007
		More than 60 years ago, German SS units carried out a brutal massacre in the northern Italian town of Marzabatto, in which hundreds were killed.
		The massacre of the civilian population of Marzabotto, carried out between September 29 and October 1, 1944, by units of the 16th SS Armoured Infantry Division under the leadership of the notorious SS SturmbannfÃ¼hrer Walter Reder, was one of the worst and most brutal Nazi crimes of the Second World War.
		The Marzabotto massacre is the theme for a film by famous Italian director Pasolini.

	Marzabotto, Bologna - Emilia-Romagna - Italy
		Located 27 km (17 miles) southwest of Bologna in the valley of the Reno, in the autumn months of 1944, it was the site of the Marzabotto massacre, for which the town received the gold medal to military courage.
		In and below the grounds of the Villa Aria, close to it, are the remains of an Etruscan town of the 5th century BC, protected on the west by the mountains, on the east and south by the river, which by a change of course has destroyed about half of it.
		The Sacrario di Marzabotto, a cemetery and memorial for the 1840 victims from Marzabotto, Monzuno, Grizzana and Castel d'Aiano, many of them never identified - among the innocent civilians killed were 316 women, 142 elderly people, 216 children under 12 and many of a few months or days old - often whole families exterminated together.
