    Italian military post from the Great War with four gunboats for as many 70 mm mountain guns. The battery closed the complex defensive system of the Cengio stronghold to the east, which was then connected to the adjacent Monte Barco stronghold.

    The emplacement was built between the spring and summer of 1917: the entire area (like many others in the Pre-Alps) was fortified following the Strafexpedition of 1916, to hinder any future Austro-Hungarian attacks.

    The gallery is very wide and majestic: average width of 2 m, length of about 74 m, 4 caves/munitions depot.

      Bring a flashlight and go dark.
