A remembrance symbol I encountered in Frascineto

In Frascineto, I filmed a red flower displayed with the Albanian words “Simboli i gjenocidit në Kosovë”—“Symbol of genocide in Kosovo.” The words are visible on the display itself.

It was a brief moment from our visit to the Arbëreshë community. I shared the image because it connected a place in Italy with remembrance of Kosovo.

This note records what the display says and where I encountered it. It does not identify the artist, establish when the display was installed, or make a separate legal finding. The original clip lets you see the object and its wording directly.
