Solferino is a small town in the province of Mantua, Lombardy, northern Italy. The town holds significant historical importance as the site of the Battle of Solferino in 1859, a crucial event in the Italian unification process.
This battle between French-Sardinian and Austrian forces led to the birth of the International Red Cross movement after Swiss businessman Henry Dunant witnessed the battlefield's aftermath. The experience prompted him to write "A Memory of Solferino," which eventually led to the establishment of the Red Cross and the first Geneva Convention.
Today, Solferino maintains several historical sites and museums dedicated to this pivotal moment in European history, including the Rocca di Solferino, a tower offering panoramic views of the former battlefield, and the Ossuary of Solferino, containing the remains of soldiers who fell during the battle.
