Near the deep sinkhole known as "Valley of the Dead", an evocative monument houses the bronze bust of General Giuseppe Pennella, commander of the 8th Italian army in the dramatic days of the Battle of the Solstice. The nearby artillery piece still extends its muzzle in the direction from which the attacking enemy columns came.

The shrine near the Valley of the Dead, commissioned by the Municipality of Giavera in the 1960s, is dedicated to the memory of the fallen of all wars. Outside the chapel, a project has been underway since 2013 to remember with a ceramic tile the missing people of all nationalities who were missing on Montello during the Great War. For each soldier, the name and surname, age at the time of death, place of birth and, where known, a personal characteristic that characterized them in their life before the War will be reported.
