Abstract
Lož Valley was occupied by the Italian occupier in April 1941. The occupier did not commit any major violence against the population during the first months of the occupation. In spite of the Italian authorities’ orders, everyday life continued until the partisan attack on the Italian garrison in Lož on 19 October 1941. Although no civilians took part in this attack, the occupier became distrustful of the population and therefore arrested, interrogated and imprisoned several individuals. The Lož Valley inhabitants received two visits from the High Commissioner of the Province of Ljubljana, Emilio Grazioli: the first in July 1941, when he came on a friendly visit, and the second after the partisan attack on Lož. Upon departing from his second visit, he allegedly threatened the Lož inhabitants that he had spared them this time, but that Lož would be destroyed in the future if they committed the slightest offence.
