Forte Lugagnano, Military fort in Verona, Italy.

The fort features a central two-story reduit with perimeter galleries equipped with firing slits and rounded angle junctions for defensive capabilities.

The Austro-Hungarian Empire commissioned the construction of Forte Lugagnano between 1860 and 1861, under the direction of Captain Daniel Salis-Soglio.

The fort incorporates traditional Veronese construction elements, including vaulted brick ceilings and rustic stonework, following the regional architectural style.

The structure contains three water reserve wells positioned at the corners of the internal courtyard, with secure magazines located near the main passageways.

The fort controls the routes from Peschiera and the Milan-Venice railway line through artillery positions protected by a pentagonal earthen embankment.
