Giorgio Frassineti

Giorgio Frassineti (29 September 1964 in Forlì) is an Italian politician of the Partito Democratico (PD) and from 2009 to 2019 mayor of Predappio.

Early life

In 1990, Frassineti completed his study in geography at the University of Bologna.

Career

In June 2009, he took over the office of mayor of the municipality of Predappio with a center-left coalition. The village of 6,000 inhabitants in the Italian region of Emilia-Romagna is most widely known as the birthplace of Mussolini.

Because of Predappio's historical significance, it was of particular concern to Frassineti to preserve buildings from the 20th century. Frassineti developed the idea of an international documentation centre in the 20th century.

Since 2019, when he lost his place as Predappio's mayor, he has been a teacher of Geography and Natural science in Forlì's school specialized in Aeronautics.

Documentation Centre of the 20th century

The documentation centre was planned to house a permanent exhibition in the space of 1000 square meters to be developed by Italian and international historians under the supervision of the Parri Institute from Bologna. In addition, space would be left for other projects that allow a critical and objective examination of the time period and at the same time cause a "learning from the past".

The project planned to cooperate with the House of Responsibility for Adolf Hitler's birthplace in Braunau am Inn. Among others, the documentation center could receive an Austrian Holocaust Memorial Servant.

In September 2011, Frassineti followed an invitation from Andreas Maislinger and Oscar-winner Branko Lustig to participate in the 20. Braunauer Zeitgeschichte-Tage titled "Difficult Heritage". On 19 July 2016, the district council of Predappio officially gave the Parri Institute permission to proceed with the documentation centre. Costs were estimated to be 3,000,000 euros of which 2,000,000 euros will be provided by the region of Emilia-Romagna from the European Union Structural Fund.
