He was born in Conselice on 21 April 1912, to Pietro Facchini and Maria Gualdrini. He graduated from the Faculty of Law of the University of Bologna in 1936; during his years of study he was secretary of the Fascist University Group (G.U.F.) of Bologna. In 1941, he started writing for Architrave, a monthly magazine of politics, literature and art published by the G.U.F. of Bologna. He later enlisted as a volunteer on the Eastern Front "to be forgiven for an article in Architrave against the excessive power of the leaders of the Fascist Party", and after returning to Italy he was appointed director of the magazine. In June 1942, Facchini also assumed the office of secretary of the GUF of Bologna, and in 1943, that of inspector of the GUF for Northern Italy.[1][2][3]
