Forte Garda
Riva del Garda, Italy · built 1907
Fort Garda is an Austro-Hungarian fortification built near the northern Italian town of Riva del Garda. It was constructed between 1907 and 1909 and was one of the last fortifications built in the area before the war with Italy began in May 1915. The fort was built on the shores of Lake Garda and was tasked with defending the northern shore of the lake, both across land and water. Despite being three floors tall, the fort was built low to the ground to blend in with the local terrain. Although a fixed fortification, it retained offensive capability: its guns could fire in any direction at ranges of up to 8.5 km.
