Montecchio Nord Fort is the last military fort from World War I and II that kept the origianl armament and it is one of the best preserved in Europe. It was built by the Kingdom of Italy as protection against a possible attack from Germany or Austria-Hungary via Switzerland. Montecchio Nord Fort was never used during the two wars.
