Ruins of a Trentino-style fortress (light fortress) built in 1880. Battery with powder store and radio and telegraph station. The highest fortress on Monte Brione. Used to monitor the area in the direction of Arco and to transmit optical signals to the surrounding fortresses.

Here is one of the numerous fortifications of Briones. One of the older ones, dating back to 1880, with a stunning view.
