Exhibits include maps, photographs and military artifacts such as WWII uniforms, weapons, field equipment and jeeps used by both Allied and Axis forces, offering a glimpse into wartime conditions. A large-scale diorama recreates the landing, showing troop movements and key locations, and personal testimonies and videos provide an immersive experience of wartime Salerno. Learn about this lesser-known chapter of WWII history and better understand Salerno’s importance in shaping post-war Italy. Next, walk through Salerno’s historic center to appreciate the charming mix of medieval streets, iconic landmarks and coastal beauty. Continue to the Giardino della Minerva Garden, a 14th-century medicinal garden containing a rich collection of herbs and plants used in medieval medicine.
