Monumento ai Caduti del 363° Reggimento Fanteria US

Sulla Strada Provinciale 503 che conduce al Passo del Giogo, meno di 2 chilometri dopo il MuGot, salendo, in località Omomorto, non visibile dalla strada, si trova il grande monumento ai caduti. È possibile visitarlo lasciando l’auto su di una piccola piazzola a destra davanti una curva a sinistra. Si attraversa la strada e si apre un cancelletto di ferro verde. Facendo cinquanta metri in salita si raggiunge il monumento.

Realizzato in travertino, è costituito da un’alta muratura semicircolare, con alla sommità una scultura in bronzo rappresentante due teste di uomo, una in posizione verticale e l’altra, con un elmetto di foggia antica, in posizione orizzontale.

Il muro, sostenuto da colonne, è posto alla sommità di una gradinata, anch’essa a semicerchio. Ai lati stanno due muri più bassi sui quali sono fi ssate le lapidi in marmo che riportano i nomi di 436 soldati del 363rd US Infantry Regiment, 91st Division, che furono uccisi in combattimento in quest’area. Sul retro sono state poste due lastre metalliche attestanti il restauro del monumento da parte del Lions Club Firenze Mugello11. È in fase di avvio il restauro completo dell’area e del monumento da parte di Gotica Toscanaaps.

Vi teniamo informati!
