On 2 January 1951, the collapse of the houses in the Milano-Palermo district, between via Dente and the Milano-Palermo bridge, caused three victims and left part of the Modica community homeless. 75 years after the tragedy, the city returns to the site to remember the lives lost and the displaced. The initiative includes the placement of a plaque in memory of the three victims and a public commemoration, at the end of a process lasting over twenty years. The ceremony is organised by the Associazione Culturale ProModica with the patronage of the Comune di Modica. The appointment is for Saturday 14 November 2026, at 11:00, in via Dente, at the Milano-Palermo bridge.
