Museum 1915-18

About

In an attempt to caution against war, and a desire for peace in Europe, the Museum accurately documents the WWI Front from the Ortler Mountains to the plains of the Isonzo. The region's history during the War is presented by revealing the fate of common soldiers as well as that of the local civilian populations from both sides. This is successfully accomplished with the aid of numerous photographs, documents, personal items of the soldiers, as well as artifacts and displays which include excellent recreations of various structures. The museum also allows the visitor to see how the "Paths of Peace" have been paved by the hard work of the "Friends of the Dolomites". These paths stretch from the Plocken Pass in the east to the Col di Lana in the west.
