Fort Interrotto was a military barracks built in the 19th century and transformed into a fortress at the outbreak of the First World War to defend the Italian border against the Austro-Hungarian Empire. The fortress is located at 1,392 meters above sea level and is located in the municipality of Asiago. The name of the fort does not derive from the unfinished work but from the name of the mountain on which it was built, precisely Monte Interrotto (Italianization of the Cimbrian term Hinterrucks which means "mountain placed to the north").

Hiking

Italian barracks built in the second half of the 19th century as a border garrison and military surveillance point over the Altopiano basin and the Assa Valley, thanks to its dominant position. More of a castle than a fort, its architecture is of late medieval design, entirely made of stone, complete with a moat: a far cry from the modern concrete fortifications built starting in the early 20th century in preparation for World War I. However, it was partially modernized and used at the outbreak of war.
