From here you have a beautiful view of the Castle of Trussio, first mentioned in 1257. During the war between the Emperor and the Venetian Republic, the old castle was destroyed in 1511 - the building that can still be seen today was built on its ruins. Having served as a hunting lodge for years, the complex now houses an excellent restaurant.

Redipuglia Military Memorial

Highlight • Monument

The Redipuglia military shrine was completed in 1938. Ten years of work were needed to finish the work, which currently houses the bodies of 100,000 soldiers who died during the First World War. The name Redipuglia derives from the Slovenian 'sredij poljie', which means 'middle earth'.
