Emerging in the mid-19th century, the Italian Colonies began as communal welfare centers promoting health and well-being. Under Fascist rule, they expanded significantly, with modernist architects designing new purpose-built complexes. These included around 3,800 structures—ranging from simple shelters to miniature cities—scattered along the coastline and nestled in mountain passes.
