On Saturday 14 November 2026, from 6.00 pm to 7.30 pm, the Sala civica in Via Morandi 9, Albinea, will host a public meeting to remember the seventy people from Reggio Emilia who ninety years ago joined the Spanish Republicans during the Spanish Civil War, including some citizens of Albinea and Quattro Castella. Through unpublished documents from their correspondence and the testimonies of family members, the stories of Enzo Landini, Abbondio Ferrari and the sisters Maria and Giuseppina Grassi are told. The event starts from the local dimension of the conflict and moves to the internationalisation of the war, with a focus on the anti-fascist from Albinea Enzo Landini and on the letters of Abbondio Ferrari. The initiative is organised by the Municipality of Albinea with the Municipality of Quattro Castella, Istoreco, AICVAS, ANPPIA and A.N.P.I. Speakers include Roberto Bortoluzzi and Matthias Durchfeld of Istoreco and Giacomo Mazzali, Councillor for Culture of the Municipality of Albinea; greetings will be brought by the family of Enzo Landini and the relatives of Italo Poma. Admission is free.
