The Military Memorial of Cima Grappa is located on Mount Grappa within the homonymous Monumental Zone.
The Military Memorial of Cima Grappa, designed by architect Giovanni Greppi and sculptor Giannino Castiglioni, extends from south to north along the ridge of Cima Grappa at an altitude of 1,776 meters. The monumental complex houses the remains of over 12,600 Italian fallen soldiers and more than 10,200 Austro-Hungarian fallen soldiers, preserved in two distinct structures, perfectly connected to each other, at the center of a series of buildings intended for visitor services and commemorative-religious monuments.
The Italian memorial is connected to the Austro-Hungarian one by the Via Eroica (which originates from the Piazzale della Madonna del Grappa and ends at the entrance plaza of the Portale Roma) and is characterized by a path paved with concrete slabs, flanked by seven pairs of large stelae on which the names of the locations where the most important battles of Grappa were fought are engraved in relief.
