Werk Strino, Military fortress in Vermiglio, Italy.
Forte Strino stands at 1,538 meters altitude near Passo Tonale, featuring a semicircular layout with two levels containing multiple defensive positions facing the mountain pass.
The Austrian military constructed this fortress between 1860 and 1866 as part of the defensive system along the Italian border during the Habsburg Empire period.
The fortress museum presents exhibitions about World War I and contains detailed information about military life in mountain fortifications during the nineteenth century.
