Discover more about Forte di Clemp

Forte di Clemp, positioned above Sant'Antonio di Mavignola in Val Rendena, is a historical site that offers a glimpse into the past. Built by the Austro-Hungarian empire between 1914 and 1915, the fort was part of a defensive line south of the Campo Carlo Magno Pass. This strategic location allowed the Austro-Hungarian forces to control the connection routes and protect the Tonale barrier. The fort itself was constructed using granite and concrete, measuring approximately 40 meters in length. It included rooms for troops, storage for rations, a munitions depot, and a water tank. The side facing down the mountain had embrasures for firing upon the enemy. The defensive system included trenches, forts, tunnels, and sniper outposts that stretched from Doss del Sabion to Malga Clemp and Doss del Fò. Despite its construction, Forte di Clemp never saw active combat during the war and was abandoned after the armistice. Over the years, it fell into disrepair, but recent preservation efforts have maintained the ruins. Today, visitors can explore the remains of the fort, including the perimeter walls and some sections of the vault, which offer insight into the original structure. The site provides a panoramic view of the Brenta Dolomites and the Adamello glaciers.
