What was the first capital city on the European mainland to be freed from Axis control?
Rome, Italy was the first capital city liberated by the Allies in World War II.
Italy was originally on the Nazi side, but they surrendered on 8 Sept 1943 and the Germans took over control of Italy. Rome was liberated by the Allies on 4 June 1944.
So Rome was technically the last capital to become occupied, and the first to be freed. It would have been the first Axis capital to fall to the Allies, except that the majority of Italian forces had by then changed allegiances and were fighting for the Allies.
