Monument to the Nine Fallen at Castions di Strada

Friuli, from the Natisone and Torre Valleys to the Tagliamento Monuments and historic buildings

The monument to the Nine Fallen at Castions di Strada has great symbolic and historical value.

It commemorates the Italian soldiers killed in the engagement remembered as the last on the Austro-Italian front, which took place on 4 November 1918, shortly before the armistice came into force. It was erected “by the comrades in arms of the 28th Army Corps” and inaugurated on 13 April 1919 in the presence of Duke of Aosta Emanuele Filiberto.

It can be seen near the locality of Bivio Paradiso, at the junction of regional road SR353 and provincial road SP87 towards Torsa
