Sacrario militare del Tonale, Military cemetery at Passo del Tonale, Italy

The Sacrario militare del Tonale is a military cemetery and ossuary on Passo del Tonale, a high mountain pass on the border between Lombardy and Trentino. The building has a rectangular body with a semicircular section at the rear, topped by a bronze statue of Victory that stands above the surrounding ridge.

The first stone of a Monument to Victory was laid here by King Vittorio Emanuele III on 3 September 1922, and it was inaugurated on 31 August 1924. In 1933 the structure was converted into an ossuary, receiving the remains of fallen soldiers exhumed from the military cemeteries of Case di Viso, Ponte di Legno, Pezzo, Stadolina, Temù and Val d'Avio. The enlarged memorial, designed by architect Pietro Del Fabbro, was completed and inaugurated in 1936.

The memorial is still managed by the municipality of Ponte di Legno, which funded its restoration in 2015. Four candelabras on the inner altar, made by sculptor Timo Bortolotti, are dedicated to the fallen of the provinces of Trento and Brescia and of Ponte di Legno and Vermiglio. Commemorative plaques in four niches honour the Calvi brothers, Gennaro Sora, Francesco Tonolini and Angelo Tognali, all fighters on the Tonale and Adamello fronts.

The ossuary stands directly along the pass road and can be reached on foot from the nearby parking areas without any difficult terrain. Road conditions in winter can be unpredictable at this altitude, so checking ahead before traveling is a good idea.

The ossuary holds 847 Italian soldiers, fifty of them unknown, moved here from wartime cemeteries at Case di Viso, Ponte di Legno, Pezzo, Stadolina, Temù and Val d'Avio. In recent years, remains that emerged as local glaciers retreated have also been buried here.
