This research aims to investigate the causes of the temporary crisis of West German tourism in Italy in the early 1960s, usually considered the gol- den age of mass holiday. Through an interdisciplinary approach, the essay examines the political, economic and socio-cultural factors underlying the decline in the Italian destinations among Rft travellers, by contextualizing them in the diplomatic and economic relations developed between these two countries after World War II.

Keywords: Italy; German Federal Republic; Tourism; Soft Power; Mass Consumption.
