“This morning a few moments of panic because my cell phone had failed me and therefore following the orientation I am setting out for Kutina. Thirty years after the war I enter the places that were the scene of war in 1992, while today, 30 years later, another war is being fought in Europe. I study the route the night before, just before going to sleep. At 9.30pm I go to rest to start the journey just before 7am. In recent days it has been really difficult to ask someone for information, in the open countryside and on roads where cars were speeding by“: Vienna writes in his travel diary.

“Yesterday, along the way, while I was skirting a railway line, I noticed a train passing by with unique characteristics as it also had seats on the top and uncovered to favor the panoramic view. I crossed Popovaca, while in Zagreb I was interviewed by the National TV of Croatia. Kutina is a land of emigration from Belluno. In fact, there is a small Italian community, originally from Longaroneestablished in October 1996. The city has 24,597 inhabitants and is located in the Sisak region ”.

Archeoclub will be there and what we will have with Vienna Cammarota – he said Rosario Santanastasio, national president of the Archeoclub of Italy – it will be a really exciting time. On the one hand Vienna will tell us about the archaeological and cultural heritage that, for example, the era left in the territories it will cross in those days and on the other hand there will be numerous events throughout the Italian national territory precisely in the archaeological sites “.
