Forte Ciuto, Military fort on northern hills, Savona, Italy
The defense structure stands at 400 meters above sea level, offering a strategic position over the Savona-Vado and Quiliano port area
The Royal Army Engineering Corps of Turin directed the construction of this military fortification in 1885 to protect the Ligurian coastline.
The fort represents a notable example of late 19th-century military engineering, incorporating advanced defensive technologies of its time period.
Access to the fort requires careful navigation through unmaintained roads, starting from the battery of Nostra Signora degli Angeli.
The fort contained two Gruson 120/21 towers and specialized disappearing towers equipped with 57/43 Mod.1887 artillery pieces.
