Tips
The Kobarid area was the scene of several battles during the First World War as part of the Isonzo Front between Austria-Hungary and the Kingdom of Italy, which fought on the side of the Entente. After a long, costly trench warfare, the Central Powers achieved a breakthrough in the Battle of Karfreit in October 1917, although this was not, of course, decisive for the war.
