Villa Mussolini in Riccione Up for Sale

Rome: The villa where Fascist dictator Benito Mussolini used to spend his summer holidays, located at the Romagna Riviera resort of Riccione, is up for sale at auction, the local council announced Wednesday.

According to Ansa News Agency, Premier Giorgia Meloni’s right-wing Brothers of Italy (FdI) party has stated that the prospective buyer should not change the property’s name from Villa Mussolini. They have suggested that Il Duce’s former holiday dwelling should be transformed into a museum dedicated to Riccione and Romagna in the 20th century.
