Did the Waffen SS publicly hang Italian partisans?

One of the worst atrocities in WWII took place in an area south of Bologna called Monte Sole. Thousands of people were slaughtered by the Waffen SS and the Herman Goering division in response to partisan attacks in the area. And, while some of the victims (most shot by firing squads)were indeed partisans, most were innocent peasants who lived in several villages on the mountain. Of course there were many other less dramatic reprisals by German forces in northern Italy, most taking place in the summer and fall of 1944.As far as public hanging goes, the German forces were authorized to execute any partisans they found a during this period of high partisan activity. Public executions, whether hanging or firing squad, seemed to be common.one concrete example of public hangings is Viale dei Martiri, ( Street of Martyrs) a treeline street on the edge of Bassano Del Grappa, a town in Veneto region. The street is named for the 31 partisans who were killed by the Nazis and hung from these trees during WWII. The trees still stand and there are pictures of each partisan on the tree on which they were hung. It is very humbling to see.
