Ortona is a coastal town and municipality of the Province of Chieti in the Italian region of Abruzzo, with some 23,000 inhabitants.
Ortona was the site of fierce fighting between the 1st Fallschirmjäger Division and the 1st Canadian Infantry Division during the Italian campaign in World War II. The ferocity of the battle led it to be known as the "Little Stalingrad" (See Battle of Ortona).
The origins of Ortona are uncertain. Presumably, it was first inhabited by the Frentani, an Italic population. In 2005, during works near the Castle, a Bronze Age settlement was discovered, and the Roman town largely coincided with this first settlement. Some sections of paved roads and urban walls, as well as some archaeological findings are the only remains of this period. Ortona remained a part of the Roman Empire (i.e., the Byzantine Empire) for several centuries, before it was annexed by the Kingdom of the Lombards. In 803 the Franks incorporated Ortona into the county of Chieti. From that date on, the town remained tied to Chieti and its territory.

Fue la batalla más sangrienta y misteriosa de la II Guerra Mundial en Italia. En Ortona, una pequeña localidad costera en la región de los Abruzos, los alemanes y los canadienses pelearon literalmente en cada calle, cada casa, e incluso en cada habitación. ¿Por qué todo el mundo quería conquistar Ortona en diciembre de 1943? ¿Qué había que fuera tan importante? ¿Por qué se olvidó después todo tan rápidamente? ¿Qué vergonzoso secreto se oculta en Ortona hasta el día de hoy? Grabaciones de archivo sorprendentes e inéditas, restauradas gracias a la alta definición, relatos desconocidos de testigos, documentos secretos, fotografías alemanas encontradas recientemente, además de asombrosas reconstrucciones por ordenador nos ayudan a revivir no sólo el ambiente militar y político de la época, sin...
