Default Mussolini's hometown aims to deter far-right supporters with Museum of Fascism

Mussolini's hometown aims to deter far-right supporters with Museum of Fascism

Predappio hopes to attract a different kind of visitor with a museum that shows dark period for what it was

The road to hell may be paved with good intentions, but as a tiny town in northern Italy has discovered, so too can the road to neo-fascism.

Two decades ago, the former mayor of Predappio, birthplace of Benito Mussolini, decided to allow the sale of Fascist and Nazi trinkets in small shops in town. The idea was to control their sale by limiting them to the a handful of stores on the sleepy town's main street.
