Forte Tombion, Military fort in Valbrenta, Italy
The fortress consists of two casemated batteries positioned perpendicular to the road, with embankments and a protective moat surrounding the structure.
Built in 1884, Forte Tombion served as a critical defensive position along the Brenta Valley, replacing the centuries-old Covolo di Butistone stronghold.
The fort represents nineteenth-century Italian military engineering practices through its strategic layout and architectural elements characteristic of the period.
Visitors need to contact the manager of Ristorante Forte Tombion at 042492130 to arrange access to this privately owned historical structure.
During World War II, local resistance fighters executed a strategic operation that resulted in the destruction of the railway tunnel adjacent to the fort.
