Forte Ceraino, Military fort in Dolcè, Italy.
The fortress stands on a plateau at 236 meters above sea level, offering control points over the Adige Valley and Monte Pastello area.
Built between 1850 and 1851 under Feldmarschall Radetzky's command, the fort formed a strategic barrier towards the Brenner Pass and Vallagarina valley.
The structure represents Austrian military engineering with its red ammonitic stone construction and eight gun embrasures for artillery defense.
Visitors can reach the fort through a narrow military road from Ceraino district, connecting to Forte di Monte with a 30-minute walking distance.
The fortress contains preserved internal chambers including powder magazines, officers' quarters, and large cisterns designed for rainwater collection.
