Commemorazione del 4 Novembre — Anniversario della Vittoria
The anniversary of the Victory of Vittorio Veneto and the Day of National Unity and the Armed Forces
About 4 Novembre
The City of Victory
Vittorio Veneto, in the province of Treviso, is inextricably linked to November 4th: it was here, between October 24th and November 4th, 1918, that the Battle of Vittorio Veneto was fought, the decisive offensive that led to the end of World War I on the Italian front. This is why the city experiences the anniversary with a very special intensity.
The Solemn Ceremony
The celebrations begin with the laying of the wreath at the Monument to the Knights of Vittorio Veneto, on Viale Vittorio Emanuele II. The procession then moves to Piazza del Popolo for the solemn commemoration ceremony for the fallen, with the flag-raising in the presence of civil, military, and religious authorities, and veterans' associations. In the afternoon, at the Shrine of the Flags in the Serravalle cattle market, Holy Mass is celebrated in memory of the fallen; the celebrations conclude with the flag lowering.
Memory and Identity
The Day of National Unity and the Armed Forces in Vittorio Veneto is much more than a civil commemoration: it is the moment when the city renews the memory of its history and the role it played in 1918. The day typically concludes with an evening concert at the Lorenzo Da Ponte Theatre dedicated to the City of Victory.
