Fort Treporti, Military fortress in Cavallino-Treporti, Italy.
The fort features two entrances on its western facade: a service entrance and a main portal that connects to an inner courtyard through a former drawbridge.
Austrian military engineers constructed Fort Treporti between 1845 and 1851 on the foundation of an earlier French fortification to protect Venice's lagoon entrance.
The fortress chambers now function as meeting spaces for local sports groups and cultural organizations, connecting the community with its military heritage.
The fort maintains its original structural elements, including two observation towers from World War I, one cylindrical and one rectangular in shape.
Fort Treporti stands at a strategic position facing both the sea and the Venetian lagoon, equipped with specialized artillery for defending against naval threats.
