Eduino Francini

Francini was born in Massa Carrara and grew up in Sansepolcro. He was the commander of a partisan company which played an important role in the insurrection of Sansepolcro (19 March 1944) against the Nazi-Fascist occupation. Some days later, he was captured and killed with eight comrades in Villa Santinelli (Umbertide), after a long fight with superior Nazi forces.
