    The real name is "Forte di Colle Alto". It is part of a system of fortifications that are located throughout the Franco-Italian border. The construction of the Fort took place from 1881 to 1883: it was disarmed during the First World War and used as a reserve in the following years.

      Imposing well-preserved fort that can also be reached by car (parking near the Chalet Le Marmotte) and can be easily visited with a short walk
