Monte Cassino 1944

Monte Cassino 1944
A German-Polish Encounter
In February 1944 – 80 years ago this year – one of the bloodiest battles of the Second World War began at Monte Cassino, a beautiful old monastery hidden in the hills south of Rome. Germans, Poles, Americans, British, New Zealanders, Indians, French, Algerians and Moroccans fought in a ‘multi-ethnic’ battle which cost over 75,000 soldiers their lives. The location and its history are the focus of our German-Polish youth camp. Together we will visit cemeteries and memorials, work on war graves and explore the region. We will also spend several days in Northern Italy, including excursions to Verona and Bologna.
