*The purpose of Gotica Toscana is to keep alive the memory of WWII by exhibiting vehicles and items found on the battlefield, touring relevant sites, such as Pietramala--the site of the 8th Evac Hospital, promoting re-enactor events, hosting veteran meetings, and making known relevant books, diaries, and pictures. To see photographs and read about past open-air museums and re-enactments and to learn of future events go to http://www.goticatoscana.it/.
