    Tips

    Even before the Great War, the Gazza Plateau was a strategic point for surveillance and defense of this stretch of border between the Kingdom of Italy and the Habsburg Empire: the Lora Pass above it was a communication route between the two states. The Battisti Refuge itself served as the Guardia di Finanza barracks until 1922.

    As the conflict drew near, military operations intensified, and the Gazza Pass, due to its dominant position, was entrenched with a firing and observation post.
