Inaugurated on August 30, 1956, the Third Army Museum displays relics, documents, and historical memories of the “Invincible” during World War I. The purpose of the exhibition is to pay tribute to all the fallen, regardless of nationality, and to provide an opportunity to reflect on war and its consequences.<\/p>\n
Weapons, uniforms, and artifacts show the living conditions of soldiers and their equipment; the cartographic collection, in excellent condition, preserves maps that were hand-drawn and colored with pastels every morning to indicate the location of the Major Units, Corps, and Divisions. Rare are the images contained in the Italian and Austrian photo albums, such as the extraordinary collection of stereoscopic plates depicting scenes from the Great War that can be admired through a three-dimensional viewer. There are countless documents, all original and available in digital or paper format, collected in spacious containers: even today, by rereading them, one can relive the drama of the Piave moment by moment.<\/p>\n
A collection of about 60,000 signatures from veterans or relatives of former combatants, donated to the Duke of Aosta in Turin in 1926, also holds the names of illustrious figures who have marked the history of Italy.<\/p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
