One of the tunnels of the ancient pozzolana quarries where the massacre took place. The rocky walls still bear the marks of pozzolana extraction, a material used by Romans for cement. The warm and cool lighting highlights the drama of the place that on March 24, 1944 became the scene of one of the most heinous Nazi crimes in Italy.
