Museo per la Memoria di Ustica, Bologna

The museum is an open space with the rests of the airplane, as well as a small room where a short film is presented, regarding a little bit of the history of the crash, what happened later, and how the remains came to rest here. It is honestly very harrowing to see something we think of as so powerful or big or strong - a plane - destroyed, with all the lives and people it took with it, while at the same time not knowing what really happened. It was an incredible experience to visit and learn more about this terrible accident.

A really atmospheric and interesting place, giving dignity to the victims. Christian Boltanskis intervention is really well made piece, adding personal layers to the dismantled plane.
