It is easy to forget that Kefallonia saw bloodshed and destroying earthquakes more than one time.Pay your respect and you can go back to enjoy the picturesque views and crystal clear sea.

Moving Memorial - flowers are often left. Anyone who knows the history of the event (Corelli's Mandolin book & film for a start!)can't fail to be moved.

We have tried to visit the museum dedicated to the Italian soldiers on the Main Street on numerous occasions but always find it closed, so we decided to visit this memorial instead to find out a little more information. We only found it due to other reports on here, as it is very badly signposted, it is almost as if they don't want you to find it. I thought the location was fitting, really peaceful and quiet which enables you to reflect on what you are reading and seeing. The idyllic setting makes it hard to imagine the atrocities that occurred here. For me the pit opposite Turquoise ceramic studios is the most shocking and moving of the two. Anything that makes you stop and reflective if only for a short while on the horrors of war has to be a good thing.

We visit to pay our respects every time we are in Kefalonia. we never cease to be shocked by the atrocities that happened here. Before you turn up the hill there is a plaque marking the place where many of the soldiers died. we saw an elderly lady putting these flowers there as it was very close to the anniversary.

We had tried a couple of times to find this memorial which is in addition to the one on the main Fanari road to the lighthouse. Quite an uphill walk but once you reach it it is so quiet and peaceful. By coincidence we visited on 13 Sept, the date on the memorial. At the bottom of the hill is a little craft shop called Turquoise where the owner has put together a display of photographs from the period, some of which were passed down by his father who survived the war on the island. He will make you very welcome if you want to pop in and view them.

This is a very interesting piece of history. It is of course very sad that the Germans killed their Italian allies. Many Italian people visit and lay flowers here.

Though difficult to find it is worth the effort. Following the coast road north out of Apostolic. Just past the marina there is as all sign and road off to the left. Follow this to the end Up through the pine forest into the hills. There you will find this memorial in a lovely tranquil clearing.

Got a taxi up to have a look at this memorial. Luckily the taxi driver knew most of the history of the events leading up to the war and during it. He could also speak really good english, so we got lots of extra information. He made the visit very worth while.

Not the things you want to think about on vacation... But it is important not to forget this part of our history. Not this one, and not all others around the world. The memorial is nice. And when you have read about Kefalonia during WW2, it is a strong place to visit. A thought to all good people that lost theire life here.

On the Piccolo Yiro, (coast road between lassi and Argostoli ) there is a pit with a commemorative plaque, another place where a number of soldiers were slaughtered. At least 135 lost their lives.This is half way up the hill towards the memorial.
