Battle of Gemmano

Q2237517




The Battle of Gemmano took place during World War II, between 4 September and 15 September 1944. The battle occurred in the area of the Gothic Line, near the Apennine Mountains in northern Italy, which would soon turn out to be the last line of defence for the Axis powers in Italy. The village of Gemmano was eventually captured on September 9, 1944, by the British Eighth Army, but two more subsequent attacks were needed to secure the area surrounding the village of Gemmano. Fighting was so fierce, similar to that of the famous battle of Monte Cassino, that the battle was sometimes referred to as “The Cassino of the Adriatic”.
