Giarre-Riposto

Giarre-Riposto (also known as Ionia) was a comune (municipality) that existed from 1939 to 1945 in the province of Catania, Italy.

History

The municipality of Giarre-Riposto was created by the fascist regime in 1939, merging the municipalities of Giarre and Riposto which had previously been administratively separate.[1]

In 1942, the municipality of Giarre-Riposto had been re-named to Ionia.[2]

Following the end of World War II, the two towns were separated once more by legislative decree and both had their names and administrative capabilities restored.[3]
