“The displaced. Refugees, Flüchtlinge,Uprchlíci. 1914-1919”
The exhibition tells the story of refugees from Trentino in the First World War

The exhibition tells the story of refugees from Trentino in the First World War through photos, diary entries, letters, maps, specially-created tables, paintings, along with memories from notebooks, postcards and pages of crumpled letters (there are even letters written on tree bark), as well as chests, the registers of refugee camps, and objects brought back by refugees from their exile.
A map on the forced displacement of populations in Europe during the First World War, developed by researchers at the University of Trento, will depict the phenomenon of refugees at a continental scale for the first time.
The exhibition is managed by the History Laboratory of Rovereto, in collaboration with the Civic Museum Foundation in Rovereto, the Italian War History Museum (which coordinates the Rete Trentino Grande Guerra) and the Cultural Activities Office of the Autonomous Province of Trento. The exhibition is by the architect Giovanni Marzari and the artwork by Giancarlo Stefanati.
The exhibition is part of a wider project of the Autonomous Province of Trento, dedicated to refugees from Trentino in the First World War.
