BARD, ITALY - JUNE 01: Performers take part in a re-enactment of the passage of Napoleon Bonaparte with his troops in May 1800 during the Second Italian Campaign "Napoleonica" on June 01, 2025 in Bard, Italy. In 1800, Napoleon's army crossed the Great St. Bernard Pass from Switzerland, but their advance was interrupted by the siege of Fort Bard. These days, the Fortress of Bard is being transformed into an open-air theatre for Napoleonica; the grand historical reenactment that brings to life the passage of Napoleon Bonaparte and his army through the Aosta Valley.
