The Melogno Central Fort was a defensive structure built to protect the so-called "Melogno barrier" near the hill of the same name. It was built between 1883 and 1895 at the behest of the Royal Army to defend Lower Piedmont and the Ligurian Apennine chain from potential land attacks from the Ligurian coast. The Melogno Central Fort was part of a defensive system that included the Tortagna and Settepani forts, and the Merizzo Fort.
