    Tips

    May 13, 2023

    During the First World War, in the Campo Gallina valley there was a real Austro-Hungarian military citadel, protected by the surrounding peaks and served by the imposing Kaiser Karl Straße road: it included shelters, a hospital, a cemetery, a small church, warehouses, a shop, bread ovens, aqueduct, cableways and even a cinema... it is estimated that it hosted up to 25,000 soldiers at the time!

    Founded after the Strafexpedition of 1916 and constantly expanded, this teeming high-altitude logistics base was particularly crucial during the Battle of Ortigara in 1917, as a rear area with an impressive distribution of men and equipment.
