    Tips

    September 26, 2023

    On the former border between Italy and the Austrian Empire there are numerous fortifications from the First World War. The so-called “Grottes of Mezzema” are part of this. It is a hand-dug tunnel system that houses a small museum corner. There are a total of three tunnel systems in Mezzema that can hardly be seen from the outside. During World War I, the tunnels were manned by soldiers who could easily observe the approaching enemy on the road. Smaller exhibits from this period can be seen in the museum, such as helmets, coins, rifle cartridges and grenades.

    During World War II, however, the cave system served as a shelter for the local population.


    entry

    Access to the caves is via a small turnstile with a 1 euro coin slot, which turns on the lighting and the mountain hunters' choir.
