Hiking

The Haideck (fortification) plant was built in 1886 to defend the region after the loss of the then Austrian province of Veneto to Italy and was later used for defense during World War I. At the beginning of the Italian attack in 1915, however, it was already clear that the facility would not withstand the bombardment of modern artillery and remained empty. Lights were lit at night to pretend that the work was in use.

Interesting information board about the history of these ruins and the fortifications in South Tyrol. However, there is not much left to visit from the building.
