The monument to the tragedy of Fonte Vetica Campo Imperatore

Campo Imperatore, Abruzzo view map

Here, on 13 October 1919 the pastor of Pupi Nunzio Roio died with his daughter surprised by a blizzard of snow, his wife in a desperate attempt to help them go insane and die from the pain. The sculptor has given Vicentino Michetti marble in this tragedy to honor those who have died in these mountains.
