"Lazio will organize an annual trip to Auschwitz for 200 young Lazio supporters," Lotito told reporters in a televised statement in front of the Jewish place of worship.
Lotito spoke in reference to the Auschwitz-Birkenau Memorial and Museum in Poland, which rises on the former Nazi concentration camps where 1.1 million Jewish people -- including Anne Frank -- were deported and most were exterminated during World War II.
Victims of the Nazis also included people of the Roma and Sinti ethnicities, gays, and political leftists. The site is now on the UNESCO World Heritage list.
Also on Tuesday, the Italian Soccer Federation (FIGC) said in a statement that an extract from the Diary of Anne Frank will be read during a minute of reflection before this week's matches.
Anne Frank became famous after her death because of her diary, which she wrote during two years in hiding from the Nazis.
The move "condemning the recent anti-semitic episodes and in order to cultivate the memory of the Holocaust" was taken in agreement with the Italian Union of Jewish Communities (UCEI), the FIGC said.
