The legacy of the Italian Social Republic (RSI) has left a dissonant imprint on Lake Garda. The ongoing controversy surrounding proposals for a dedicated museum reveals unresolved tensions. This paper proposes a diffuse museum model, integrating scattered historical sites into a cohesive narrative network. Through thematic routes, public engagement, and educational tools, the project aims to foster critical reflection and ethical tourism, reframing the RSI’s presence within the broader regional memory.

Abstract
The legacy of the Italian Social Republic (RSI) has left a dissonant imprint on Lake Garda. The ongoing controversy surrounding proposals for a dedicated museum reveals unresolved tensions. This paper proposes a diffuse museum model, integrating scattered historical sites into a cohesive narrative network. Through thematic routes, public engagement, and educational tools, the project aims to foster critical reflection and ethical tourism, reframing the RSI’s presence within the broader regional memory.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
