About Forte Campomolon

Fort Campomolon is an Italian fortification located between the Tonezza and Fiorentini Plateaus. Campomolon is located on the mountain of the same name at an altitude of 1853 m (6100 ft). Work building the fort was started in 1912, but wasn't finished when war broke out in May 1915. The fort was built on the Italian-Austro-Hungarian border. To even reach the building site, an access road had to be built because the fort was so remote.
