The history of the Italian mountain corps on the Doss di Trento
Image gallery: National History Museum of Alpine Soldiers
The so-called "Museo Storico degli Alpini" nestles on the Doss di Trento hill that towers above the city of Trento and was inhabited by ancient populations already in the neolithic age. During the Roman era and later, it served as a military stronghold for the people living in the Val d'Adige Valley.
Recently renovated, the museum now presents itself in a completely new form. A prominent staircase leads to the entrance of the modern building. The tour through the museum exhibition, which is divided into thematic areas, including a garden where some original artillery pieces are displayed, starts in the museum's atrium and tells the visitor the story of the Alpini Military Corps from its foundation to the present day with documents, environmental reproductions, objects, films, historical photos and multimedia installations.
