The Battle of Gemmano took place during World War II, between the dates of September 4th, and September 15th of 1944. The battle occurred in the area of the Gothic Line, near the Apennine Mountains in northern Italy, which would soon turn out to be the last line of defense for the Axis Powers in Italy. The village of Gemmano was eventually captured on September 9th, 1944 by the invading Eighth Army (United Kingdom), but two more subsequent attacks were needed to secure the area surrounding the village of Gemmano. Fighting was so fierce, similar to that of the famous battle of Monte Cassino, that the battle was sometimes referred to as, “ The Cassino of the Adriatic”.

  • Die Schlacht von Gemmano fand im Zweiten Weltkrieg zwischen dem 4. und 15. September 1944 bei Gemmano statt, einem Dorf in der Provinz Rimini, als die Alliierten versuchten, die Gotenstellung zu durchbrechen. Im Laufe dieser Schlacht, die sich aus einer Reihe von vier britischen Angriffen gegen die deutschen Posten entwickelte, wurde das Dorf Gemmano im zweiten Angriff am 9. September besetzt, während die folgenden zwei Operationen zur Eroberung der umliegenden Gegend führten. Obwohl diese Schlacht recht kurz war, wird diese Schlacht von vielen Historikern als das Monte Cassino an der Adria bezeichnet. (de)

  • La battaglia di Gemmano si svolse durante la seconda guerra mondiale tra il 4 settembre e il 15 settembre del 1944 presso la località omonima, non lontano da Rimini, nel tentativo alleato di sfondare la Linea Gotica. Durante questa battaglia, sviluppatasi in una serie di quattro attacchi dei britannici contro le postazioni tedesche, il paese di Gemmano venne occupato durante il secondo attacco del 9 settembre, mentre le altre due azioni successive portarono alla ritirata delle rimanenti forze del centesimo Reggimento alpino austriaco nella zona. Nonostante la sua brevità, per la sua cruenza viene ricordata da molti storici come la "Cassino dell'Adriatico". Alla fine degli scontri, si contarono più di 900 cadaveri solo nella parte più alta della collina, dove avvennero le fasi più concitate dello scontro (it)
