Guided excursion in the places of the great war with guides ALTOPIANO di Asiago-"Campogallina, a city in the clouds"

THROUGH THE GREAT WAR IN PLATEAU

Campogallina, a city in the clouds.

Even today, after 100 years, you can see the well preserved remains of the extraordinary logistical complex, strategic point of the 6th Infantry Division built nearly 2000 metres Austro-Hungarian.

A real "Citadel" built after the Strafexpedition in June 1916, with all services: mains and storage tanks, cinema, Church, dozens of shelters in barracks and warehouses.

Also the important field hospital # 1303 and the cemetery. Amazing roads (now partly paths from the path of peace) which connected throughout the area with the first lines, particularly those on the Ortigara; served by the important transit station of the cable car # 13 coming from the plain of Vezzena.

In addition to imposing monument that dominates the area and dedicated "to the heroes", even well evident the remains of the Division, with the monument that commemorates his commander, Feldmarshal a.e. von Mecenseffy, dropped the 6 October 1917 on the slopes of Corno di Campo Green, at the harness that now bears his name. At 13.45 hours by the Observatory near the top Caldiera, codenamed "ELSA g." was given the order to fire an artillery strike on the one and a half kilometres of Karl-Strasse discovered and Italian observatories. The fatal shot parts worldwide lines near the artillery positions of the sector Campanella/Caldiera. One of the splinters of deflagration full shots 6 Hungarian Division Commander who died shortly after.

Today in the whole area, surrounded by a unique naturalistic context, seems to take a step back in history.
