L'Aquila Nearly 16 Years After The 2009 Earthquake
Facade of Santa Maria del Suffragio Church, well known as ''Anime Sante'' (''Holy Souls Church'') and a crane are seen in L'Aquila, Italy, on April 3rd, 2025. On April 6th L'Aquila will commemorate its 16th anniversary of 2009 earthquake, a tragic event which claimed the lives of 309 people and devastated the region. Reconstruction of historical center of the city is progressing, and alongside buildings still devastated by the earthquake, others have been completely rebuilt and are now inhabited. The growing presence of offices, commercial activities, and gathering places is bringing the city back to its normality. (Photo by Lorenzo Di Cola/NurPhoto)
