Forte Monte Tesoro, Military fort in Sant'Anna d'Alfaedo, Italy.

Built at an elevation of 917 meters, Forte Monte Tesoro features three floors, underground tunnels, and six rotating armored domes housing 149mm cannons.

The fort was constructed between 1906 and 1911 as part of the Verona defense system to protect northern Italy from potential Austro-Hungarian invasions.

The municipality of Sant'Anna d'Alfaedo acquired the fort in 2013 and initiated restoration works in 2016 to preserve its architectural heritage.

Visitors can access the fort via a road from Negrar di Valpolicella, with guided tours available by appointment during special events and exhibitions.

The structure contains a 66-meter staircase carved into the hill, leading from the powder storage rooms through a long tunnel into the main fort.
