The square with a view of the former “Casa del Fascio”
Pomezia is a city in the Province of Rome, in Lazio. It was designed by the Mussolini government and inaugurated on 29/10/1939, thus losing almost all the vestiges of its old swampy and wooded territory. On the day of the symbolic laying of the first stone of the city, on 25/04/1938, Benito Mussolini, head of the Fascist government, was present. During World War II, it was tormented by Allied bombings.
Initially, the city was supposed to be called Ausonia, but it was finally decided for Pomezia; it was inhabited above all by farmhouses, many of whom immigrated from northern Italy. Over time, Pomezia managed to rise up and overcome a bad period of deindustrialization, with the consequent closure of many companies, becoming a site of strong commercial flow .
During the carnival, Pomezia comes alive with neighborhood parties and parades with floats. The patron saint of the city is San Benedetto da Norcia and it is celebrated on 11 July of each year. I recommend a visit to the interesting Lavinium City Museum of Pomezia recently inaugurated.
Have a good trip!
