Ti trovi a 2430 metri di quota, al centro del grande villaggio militare di Conca Serodine.
\nLo sguardo spazia sull’opposto versante dove si staglia la frastagliata cresta Castellaccio-Lagoscuro-Payer-Pisgana, corrispondente alla prima linea di difesa italiana.
\nL’accesso al villaggio avveniva dalla Valle di Viso, attraverso una lunga mulattiera militare che si staccava poco prima del Rifugio Bozzi e da una serie di sentieri che salivano dalla sottostante localit\u00e0 di Vescasa.
\nIl grande muraglione posto a valle della strada, che ancora percorre tutto il largo avvallamento, era stato appositamente costruito per far transitare i soldati al sicuro dai tiri delle artiglierie avversarie, posizionate sulla cresta dei Monticelli.
\nInfatti, mentre tutto il tracciato proveniente dalla Val di Viso rimaneva protetto dalla dorsale montuosa, quando la strada si affacciava alla Bocchetta Bleis, essa si trovava in campo aperto e quindi completamente sotto tiro.
\nQuesta parte di fronte fu interessata dalle grandi battaglie dell’estate del 1918. La prima offensiva fu sferrata dagli Austriaci il 13 giugno 1918 al Passo del Tonale. Un grande attacco che nelle intenzioni dei comandi austriaci avrebbe dovuto permettere lo sfondamento delle difese italiane e quindi la discesa lungo la Valle Camonica e la conquista della Pianura Padana. Tale importante azione militare, denominata \u201cLawine Expedition\u201d (la Spedizione Valanga), interess\u00f2 direttamente le prime linee di Cima Cad\u00ec e del Serodine. Sottoposti al violento tiro delle artiglierie austriache, i reparti italiani riuscirono a contenere l\u2019attacco, ponendo fine in tal modo ad ogni ulteriore velleit\u00e0 offensiva dell\u2019esercito asburgico, notevolmente prostrato da quattro anni di durissima guerra. La controffensiva lanciata dagli Italiani il 13 agosto 1918 permise invece di completare l’opera di occupazione di alcune elevazioni montuose nell\u2019area di Conca Presena, rimaste in mano austriaca dopo la grande battaglia del 25-28 maggio 1918. Tale azione doveva altres\u00ec preparare il terreno per lo sfondamento completo del fronte del Tonale che si attuer\u00e0 nei giorni precedenti l’armistizio.<\/p>\n","modified":"2021-07-06T09:01:53","color":"","icon":"","noDetails":false,"noInteraction":false,"zindex":"","imageGallery":[{"src":"https:\/\/stelvio.wp.webmapp.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/PDA0503_2-1024x576.jpg","id":2319,"caption":""},{"src":"https:\/\/stelvio.wp.webmapp.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/PDA0503_3-576x1024.jpg","id":2322,"caption":""},{"src":"https:\/\/stelvio.wp.webmapp.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/PDA0503_4-1024x576.jpg","id":2325,"caption":""}],"image":"https:\/\/stelvio.wp.webmapp.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/PDA0503-1024x577.jpg","audio":"https:\/\/stelvio.wp.webmapp.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/PDA_IT05_0503.mp3","taxonomy":{"webmapp_category":[11]},"accessibility":{"mobility":{"check":false,"description":"","level":"accessible_independently"},"hearing":{"check":false,"description":"","level":"accessible_independently"},"vision":{"check":false,"description":"","level":"accessible_independently"},"cognitive":{"check":false,"description":"","level":"accessible_independently"},"food":{"check":false,"description":""}},"reachability":{"by_bike":{"check":false,"description":""},"on_foot":{"check":false,"description":""},"by_car":{"check":false,"description":""},"by_public_transportation":{"check":false,"description":""}},"locale":"it","source":"https:\/\/stelvio.wp.webmapp.it\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/poi\/2530","wp_edit":"http:\/\/stelvio.wp.webmapp.it\/wp-admin\/post.php?post=2530&action=edit","translations":{"en":{"id":3286,"name":"PDA0503 Villaggio Militare del Serodine","web":"https:\/\/stelvio.wp.webmapp.it\/\/pda0503-villaggio-militare-del-serodine\/?lang=en","source":"https:\/\/stelvio.wp.webmapp.it\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/poi\/3286","description":"
You are now at 2430 metres in the centre of the large Serodine basin village.
\nThe view ranges over the opposite side with its jagged Castellaccio-Lagoscuro-Payer-Pisgana ridge, the Italian defensive front line.
\nAccess to the village was from the Viso valley along a long army mule track which began just before Bozzi Hut and a series of footpaths which climbed up from Vescasa below.
\nThe great wall positioned below the road, and which is still extant along the whole depression, was specially built to enable soldiers to travel safely along it, sheltered from enemy artillery positioned on the Monticelli ridge.
\nIn fact, while the whole of the path from the Viso valley remained protected by the mountain ridge, when the road neared Bocchetta Bleis, it was on open ground and thus completely exposed to fire.
\nThis part of the front was the site of the great battles of the summer of 1918. The first offensive was launched by the Austrians on 13 June 1918 at Tonale Pass. This was a large scale attack which was designed to break through the Italian defences and give the Austrians access to the whole Camonica valley and the Po plains. It was called the Lawine Expedition (operation avalanche) and saw fighting on the front Cima Cad\u00ec and Serodine lines. Under intense Austrian artillery fire the Italian divisions succeeded in holding off the attack and thus brought any further Austrian offensive ambitions to an end, with the latter now exhausted by four long years of bitter warfare. The offensive launched by the Italians on 13 August 1918 enabled them to complete their occupation of certain high mountain areas in the Presena basin area which had remained in Austrian hands after the 25-28 May 1918 battle. This action was also designed to prepare the ground for a total breakthrough on the Tonale front which was implemented in the days before the armistice.<\/p>\n","audio":"https:\/\/a.webmapp.it\/stelvio.wp.webmapp.it\/media\/audios\/2530_en.mp3"},"de":{"id":2773,"name":"PDA0503 Villaggio Militare del Serodine","web":"https:\/\/stelvio.wp.webmapp.it\/\/pda0503-villaggio-militare-del-serodine\/?lang=de","source":"https:\/\/stelvio.wp.webmapp.it\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/poi\/2773","description":"
Sie befinden sich auf einer H\u00f6he von 2430 Metern, mitten im gro\u00dfen Milit\u00e4rdorf bei der Senke von Serodine.
\nIhr Blick schweift \u00fcber den gegen\u00fcberliegenden Hang, wo sich der zerkl\u00fcftete Bergr\u00fccken Castellaccio-Lagoscuro-Payer-Pisgana abzeichnet, auf dem sich die italienische Verteidigungslinie befand.
\nDer Zugang zum Dorf erfolgte vom Viso-Tal aus \u00fcber einen langen milit\u00e4rischen Saumpfad, der kurz vor der Bozzi-H\u00fctte abbrach, sowie \u00fcber mehrere Pfade, die vom unten gelegenen Ort Vescasa hinaufkamen.
\nDie gro\u00dfe Mauer, die sich hinter der Stra\u00dfe befand und noch heute entlang der gesamten Senke verl\u00e4uft, war absichtlich errichtet worden, um die Soldaten sicher vor den Sch\u00fcssen der gegnerischen Artillerie, die auf dem Grat der Monticelli stand, passieren zu lassen.
\nW\u00e4hrend n\u00e4mlich die gesamte Strecke aus dem Viso-Tal kommend durch den Gebirgskamm gesch\u00fctzt war, befand sich der Stra\u00dfenabschnitt, der auf die Bocchetta Bleis traf, auf offenem Feld und stand somit komplett unter Beschuss.
\nDieser Frontteil wurde von den gro\u00dfen Schlachten des Sommers 1918 betroffen. Die erste Offensive wurde von den \u00d6sterreichern am 13. Juni 1918 am Tonalepass gestartet. Es handelte sich um einen Gro\u00dfangriff, der nach den Absichten des \u00f6sterreichischen Milit\u00e4rkommandos den Durchbruch der italienischen Verteidigungsanlagen und damit den Abstieg entlang des Tals Valcamonica und die Eroberung der Po-Ebene erm\u00f6glichen sollte. Diese wichtige Milit\u00e4rhandlung, die \u201eLawinen-Expedition\u201c genannt wurde, betraf direkt die Frontlinien auf der Cad\u00ec-Spitze und am Serodine. Unter dem heftigen Beschuss der \u00f6sterreichischen Artillerie konnten die Italiener den Angriff eind\u00e4mmen und damit allen weiteren Offensiven der durch vier Jahre sehr harten Krieg erheblich geschw\u00e4chten Habsburger Armee ein Ende setzen. Die von den Italienern am 13. August 1918 gestartete Gegenoffensive erm\u00f6glichte es ihnen, einige Gebirgserhebungen bei der Senke von Presena endlich einzunehmen, die nach der gro\u00dfen Schlacht vom 25. bis 28. Mai 1918 in \u00f6sterreichischer Hand geblieben waren. Die Aktion sollte zudem den Boden f\u00fcr den vollst\u00e4ndigen Durchbruch der Tonale-Front bereiten, der in den Tagen vor dem Waffenstillstand stattfand.<\/p>\n","audio":"https:\/\/a.webmapp.it\/stelvio.wp.webmapp.it\/media\/audios\/2530_de.mp3"}},"web":"https:\/\/stelvio.wp.webmapp.it\/poi\/pda0503-villaggio-militare-del-serodine\/","addr:street":"","addr:housenumber":"","addr:postcode":"","addr:city":"","contact:phone":"","contact:email":"","opening_hours":"","capacity":"","ele":2430},"geometry":{"type":"Point","coordinates":[10.55596,46.274433]}}
