The “IN THE FOOTSTEPS OF THE COLD WAR” bus excursion was a one-day journey along one of Europe’s “hottest Cold War borders”. The 46 participants, led by Pierluigi Lodi, visited the San Michele bunker together with volunteers from Fanteria d’Arresto, followed by lunch at Trattoria Al Poeta in Martinščina. In the afternoon, they visited the cemetery in Miren and its permanent exhibition, as well as the watchtower in Vrtojba, guided by David Kožuh and Rok Bavčar from the Goriški muzej. The day concluded with a symbolic walk to Piazza Transalpina / Europe Square.
