The history of the Italian mountain corps on the Doss Trento
Image gallery: National History Museum of Alpine Soldiers
The historic museum "Museo Storico degli Alpini" overlooks the city of Trento from the Doss Trento, a hill which was already inhabited in the Neolithic. From the Roman age on it served as a military fortress for the populations living in the Valle dell'Adige.
Recently renovated, the museum has now a whole different appearance. A majestic stairway leads to the entrance of the modern building. The exhibition itinerary is divided into various thematic areas, including a garden where some original artillery pieces are shown. The exposition starts in the entrance hall and retraces the history of the Alpini military corps with documents, environmental reproductions, objects, films, historic photos and multimedia installations from its foundation to the present day.
