Bramafam Fort, Historic fort and military museum in Bardonecchia, Italy.

The concrete fortress stands on a steep cliff, featuring two Gruson towers, four retractable gun towers, and six artillery positions overlooking the valley.

Built in 1874 on the site of a 14th-century castle, Bramafam Fort served as a strategic defense point after the construction of Frejus tunnel.

The military museum displays 160 uniformed mannequins, 39 artillery pieces, and 2000 documents illustrating Italian army history from 1885 to 1945.

The Association for History and Military Architecture Studies manages the site, which received over 5500 visitors in 2021 and offers wheelchair access.

The fort introduced innovative military technology with metal casamatta installations in wells that could be raised during combat and concealed afterward.
