The Janiculum
Wall, the construction of which was ordered by
Pope Urban VIII Barberini in 1643, was scene
of the bitter fighting that took place in 1849 for the
defence of the Roman Republic of Garibaldi,
Armellini and Saffi against French
troops commanded by General Oudinot; Luciano
Manara, Enrico Dandolo, Goffredo Mameli
and others took part in the fighting until 30 June
1849.
The
walls, under the fire of the siege, collapsed at
several points and Porta San Pancrazio was also
destroyed and was rebuilt in its current form in 1854
as designed by the architect Vespignani.
It was
recently restored by the City of Rome, the
structure is now the seat of the "Museo Storico
Garibaldino" that houses two collections that go
back over a historical itinerary that goes from the
Renaissance to the Resistance, and is a symbol
of the continuity and modernity of the Garibaldian
tradition.
Numerous
relics belonging to Giuseppe Garibaldi, his
Wife, Anita and their children and various
tokens and souvenirs of the interventions Garibaldi
made in Europe in support of the freedom of the
peoples and the attempts to create a new social organisation
are on display.
The "Museo
della Divisione Italiana Partigiana Garibaldi" is
dedicated to the final Garibaldian heroic deeds,
through the commemoration of the glorious deeds of Italian
soldiers, from the "Venezia"
and "Taurinence" divisions who, had been isolated
in Montenegro and Yugoslavia at the time of the armistice
on 8 September 1943, but, instead of surrendering to
the Germans, they united to form the "Divisione Italiana
Partigiana Garibaldi" and continued to fight for
another 18 months, and paid the tragic toll of sacrifices
and human lives.
The
museum currently has a conference hall, a specialised
library with about 1200 volumes, a historical
archive, services and structures for
disabled visitors as well.
