Winter Line
The Nazis occupation of Naples ended 20 days later with the popular insurrection of the Four Days of Naples. The insurrection, however, did not end the city's bombardments. Naples became the rearguard of the Winter Line and the "Luftwaffe" began bomb runs against the city. The largest Nazi bombings happened on the nights of 14 and 15 March 1944, and killed 300 people.
