Message from Giuseppe Re

Piazza dei Martiri in Naples is a square with a monument dedicated to the Martyrs, located near the Villa Comunale park. The central monument features a bronze statue representing the Virtue of the Martyrs, surrounded by four lions symbolizing Neapolitan patriots who died in various revolutions. Each lion represents a specific uprising, from the Parthenopean Republic in 1799 to the successful Garibaldini Revolt of 1860. The square holds historical significance as a tribute to those who fought for freedom during Italy's unification in 1861.
