We are collectively sorry to hear of this distressing news coming from Italy over the weekend. The earthquake many of us have now heard about was centered 6 kilometers outside of Bologna. Shaking the region for 20 minutes it caused deaths, injuries and homelessness. But it is the visual devastation to historic buildings and monuments in the cherished Centro Storico many of us have visited, enjoyed and remember that hurts the most. Some of the most wrenching destruction is coming out of Bologna and Finale Emilia, to the Rocca della Finale Emilia.
With the ongoing Euro struggles with Greece and concern for Italy's financial health, reconstruction is possibly far off Italy's future.
Sad destruction to history. Our hearts go to all the Italian people for such a loss of life and monument.
Here is a link on Repubblica that shows the places impacted by the earthquake.
