Geocache Description:


[ITA]
In questa galleria, oggi adattata a luogo di devozione, era piazzato un cannone austriaco, che, posto in una posizione particolare, poteva sparare senza essere colpito dall’artiglieria italiana. Il suo tiro rese ardua ai pontieri italiani la stesura delle passerelle durante l’offensiva finale nell’ottobre 1918 (Battaglia di Vittorio Veneto).

[ENG]
In this gallery, which is currently a place of worship, there was an Austrian cannon positioned at a particular angle which was able to shoot without being hit by the Italian artillery. Its accuracy made it very difficult for Italian bridge builders to create flying bridges during the final offensive in October 1918 (Battle of Vittorio Veneto).
