REMEMBRANCE DAY 2024

10 February
Blessed Francis Bonifacio

In Italy this day was established to preserve and renew «the memory of the tragedy of Italians and of all victims of the foibe, of the exodus of Istrians, Fiumans and Italian Dalmatians from their lands during the Second World War and immediately after the Second World War (1943-1945), and of the more complex story of the eastern border"*.

In this historical context lies the death “in odium fidei” of Blessed Francis Bonifacio, there is no certainty that he was thrown into a foiba; indeed, there are many other hypotheses, perhaps more valid. his remains have never been found.
