Cultural evening about the First World War

The opening of cultural and tourist sites

ATTENTION: The opening of cultural and tourist sites, access to them, to public transport and to the services described in these pages is governed by the containment measures put in place by the government authorities and the Autonomous Province of Trento to deal with the COVID-19 health emergency. The rules may vary over time and provide for the application of different security measures — from closure, to social distancing, to the mandatory use of personal protective equipment such as gloves and masks. We therefore ask you to consult the section Travelling safely on this website and to contact the managers directly for updated information on how to gain access.

A century has passed since the First World War, but some places still bear the mark. Symbol of the Great War in Val di Fassa is without doubt the Marmolada. Its control was a strategic element for access to Fassa and Tyrol. Above 3,000 metres the war became a duel, especially when the "Queen" was transformed into an imposing fort by the opposing factions. The famous Ice City was created inside the mountain with a network of frozen tunnels and underground caves.

Gabriele Valentini presents: "The Great War in Val di Fassa", focus on Marmolada glacier. In Italian language. In case of bad weather, the show will be cancelled.
