Alberobello's red house
A large house in the Apulian countryside (the Masseria Gigante named after its founder, Francesco Gigante) built in 1896 to be an agricultural school to train skilled and hard-working farmers, which in the terrible years of fascism and war became a concentration camp.A place of internment, a crossroads of many sad stories of those times. The first internees were Indians with British passports, then it was the turn of prostitutes, homeless people and finally Jews. In the large building there is also a chapel decorated and painted with little means, in 1948, by a gifted Lithuanian refugee, Victor Tschernon. Today it is an abandoned and severely run-down place. A group of local entrepreneurs is looking, with a foundation, for a way to give this place full of charm and memory a worthy destiny, but creativity and public resources need to be coordinated in a project that does not yet exist.
