TECHNICAL DETAILS LOCATION Alessandria was founded in 1168 with the precise intent of creating an obstacle through its strategic position to the Marquis of Montferrat Guglielmo the Old, a staunch supporter and relative to Emperor Federico I "Barbarossa". It was named in honour of the Emperor s opponent, Pope Alexander III and together with Milan it became the indomitable symbol of the Longobards. In 1348 Alessandria fell into the hands of the Visconti, passing to the Sforza, following the path of Milan, until 1707 when it was ceded to the House of Savoy and henceforth formed part of Piedmont Region. This new period of prosperity was marked by the construction of a large Citadel (Cittadella XVIII century) on the left side of the river Tanaro. With Napoleon's success at the Battle of Marengo (1800), it fell to France and became the capital of the Napoleonic Département of Marengo. During this period another substantial fort was built to the north of the city containing impressive and substantial barracks which are still used as a military HQ and stores (2006). The remains of a second fort to the south of the city (Cristo quarter) have been divided in two by a railway (Forte ferrovia); and a third one still remains in the middle of the same quarter (Forte Acqui). From 1814 Alessandria was Savoyard territory once more, part of the Kingdom of Sardinia. During the years of the Risorgimento, Alessandria was an active center for the liberals. In the Spinetta Marengo suburb on June 14th the Battle of Marengo is reenacted annually. Alessandria was also the first Italian province to be governed by a Socialist major, Paolo Sacco, who was elected on July 25th 1899. During World War II Alessandria was subjected to intense Allied bombing, the most serious episode taking place on April 30th 1944 which left 238 people dead and hundreds wounded followed by 160 dead on the 5th of April 1945 including 60 children from the asylum in Via Gagliaudo. By the end of that month the city was liberated from German occupation (1943-1945) by the partisan resistance and troops from the Brazilian Expeditionary Force.
