Ossuary Castel Dante o Military Shrine of Rovereto, dates back to 1936, placed on top of the mountain of the same name; built to commemorate the twenty thousand Italian soldiers, Austro-Hungarians and part of the Czechoslovak Legion fallen on the Italian front, whose remains are kept here. On the external square there are some artillery pieces and some monuments, one in memory of the lieutenant Umberto Pettazzi and one in commemoration of the sacrifice of the Czechoslovak legionaries, who fell during the battles on Mount Baldo. In 1967 the Shrine was inserted into a larger monumental area including the “Road of the Artillery”.
