The history of the Eddy Merckx Monument, located in Roccamorice on the ramps leading to the Blockhaus, is a tale that inextricably links the Belgian champion to the Maiella massif, celebrating both sporting glory and human generosity. Its roots lie in a day that changed the history of mountain cycling: a stage of the 1970 Giro d'Italia, the first time the Giro challenged the summit of the Blockhaus. On that occasion, a young Merckx—soon known as the "Cannibal"—accomplished a momentous feat, outlasting all his opponents and securing a victory that became legendary. But it was a gesture that followed the victory that cemented the community's affection: it is said that Merckx, immediately after his triumph, donated the prize money to charity. To honor this dual legacy, sporting and moral, and in anticipation of the centennial of the Giro d'Italia, the municipality of Roccamorice promoted the erection of a monument. The work was created by local craftsman Franco Aceto and sculpted from the typical white Maiella stone, and was inaugurated on May 13, 2017. Since then, the monument has become a landmark and a true cycling sanctuary for all who tackle the climb, a tangible symbol of the strength, history, and altruism that have transformed the Blockhaus into a timeless legend.
