Gavia Pass [Photo of the Day #207]

in #photography6 years ago (edited)


The Battle of San Matteo – formerly known as the highest battle in history occurred at and above Gavia.

“At the beginning of 1918 Austria-Hungarian troops set up a fortified position with small artillery pieces on the top of the San Matteo Peak, from which they were able to shell the road to the Gavia Pass and thus harass the Italian supply convoys to the front line.” - Wikipedia.
