[PND] The Town Hall and XII Martiri Square
A cache of the PND series [To not forget] in memory of the 12 partisans who on January 23, 1945 in this square, were shot in retaliation.
12 young men were taken from the Turin prisons and transported by truck to the town hall square, none of them was Druentino, the choice was probably by drawing lots.
They had their hands tied with wire, they limped and bore the signs of the violence they suffered, they were lined up in front of the town hall, and executed forcing the population to attend.
Already in May 1945 the square was given to the XII Martyrs at the request of the population.
 
In the square there is also a plaque dedicated to the fallen of the Second World War, to log the cache 'find the following information that you will need to find out the password:

What a sad event which is told about the Piazza XII Martiri with this cache. And even tho we think things like that could not happen anymore in Europa, we are moving closer and closer to times when it is feasible again (if it does not happen already). Very sad and not understandable at all!

So for that I very much liked the message of the password. After I took some pictures yesterday evening, I used the time in the train today to create the password. It took me a while and like three not promising attempts.

Gracias Br1ma for this cache and keeping the memory alive with it!
