Military shrine of Castel Dante, Military cemetery in Rovereto, Italy.

A cylindrical structure with a metal dome stands 34 meters high on a mountain site overlooking the town of Rovereto in Trentino.

The military shrine, inaugurated in 1933, contains the remains of 20,000 Italian and Austro-Hungarian soldiers who perished during the First World War.

The memorial features a bronze Via Crucis by artist G. Castiglioni and preserves the memory of soldiers from multiple nations who fought on the Italian front.

The memorial site contains an external square with artillery pieces and offers guided tours through reservations at the contact number +39-0464-432480.

The central opening permits natural light to illuminate the crypt housing the bust of Commander Guglielmo Pecori Girardi, who stopped Austrian forces in 1916.
