Adria Monument

Monument in honor of the fallen heroic officers and sailors of the destroyer 'Adrias' (the ship that refused to die!). Having excelled in difficult conditions during the period 1942-1943 in the Mediterranean and the North Atlantic, sinking, among others, two German U-boats, it lost its bow hit by a mine on 22/10/1943, off Kalymnos, and despite everything managed to reach the coast of Asia Minor safely after a difficult 3.5-hour journey.
