EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative postcard, dating back to the 1910s, captures the former Fascist Headquarters in Milan, Italy, now proudly serving as the Police Department. The image transports us back in time, offering a glimpse into the city's rich history and the significant transformation it underwent. The imposing building, adorned with intricate stone carvings and a grand entrance, once housed the headquarters of the Fascist party under Benito Mussolini's regime. The carved door and surround, bearing the symbols of the Fascist Party, are a stark reminder of the political climate that once dominated this city. However, the passage of time and the events of history have brought about a remarkable change. Following the end of World War II in 1945, the Allied military forces and the Italian government reorganized the building, and it was repurposed as the Police Department. The Carabinieri, Italy's military police force, now occupy these halls, ensuring safety and order in the bustling metropolis of Milan. The transition from a symbol of Fascist power to a beacon of law and order is a testament to Milan's resilience and adaptability. This postcard serves as a poignant reminder of the city's complex past and its unwavering commitment to providing a secure future for its residents.
