Museum for the seven Cervi brothers killed by the fascists. In 2021, the exhibition was completely revised. Fortunately, without extensive digitization. Here you can visit some of the Cervi family's living quarters, understand the development of local agriculture and the resistance of large parts of the population against fascism. One room is also dedicated to the development of the culture of remembrance in Italy since 1945.

Under the arcades of the town hall of Gattatico there are two simple plaques in memory of those who died for the freedom of the town in general and of the local Carabinieri who resisted disarmament by the German troops on September 9, 1943. https://www.pietredellamemoria.it/pietre/lapide-ai-caduti-per-la-liberta-gattatico-re/

On November 6, 1944, the base of the fascist National Guard GNR was attacked here.

The Palazzo della Rocca, which today houses the municipality, is very ancient (it could date back to the 9th century) and the life of the village, already in medieval times, gravitated around it. A circular monument to the Resistance was erected in front of the palace, while behind it, fenced off, is the Parco della Rocca.

In Baroque style, today's church of Castelnuovo Sotto dates back to 1712, on the plan of an ancient church built already in the 10th century.

The Casa Cervi Museum is located in the lower Reggio Emilia plain and is located in the farmhouse where the Cervi family arrived in 1934 to work as sharecroppers. During the final phase of World War II, seven sons of Alcide and Genoeffa Cervi were shot in December 1943 in retaliation. Their house thus became one of the most important places of memory of national liberation and has remained so until today.
