==References in popular culture== [[Elizabeth Barrett Browning]]'s poem "The Forced Recruit at Solferino" commemorates this battle (''Last Poems'' 1862). [[Joseph Roth]]'s 1932 novel [[Radetzky March (novel)|''Radetzky March'']] opens at the Battle of Solferino. There, the father of the novel's Trotta dynasty is immortalized as the Hero of Solferino.<ref>{{Cite book|title = Solferino 1859, I feriti francesi ricoverati a Manerbio|last = Valotti|first = Gianluigi|publisher = Sardini Editore|date = 2014|isbn = 9788875062200}}</ref><ref>{{Cite book|title = Solferino 1859.

[[A Memory of Solferino]], the battle, and the town itself are discussed in 2010's [[Chang-Rae Lee]]'s novel [[The Surrendered]].
