Built between 1911 and 1912, the fort was used for the storage of military goods and it was the base for various military exercises in the period between the two World Wars. At the end of the second world war it was abandoned and in the 1989 the site was salvaged and transformed into the Museum of the Tagliamento Fortress with respect to the historical architectural characteristics of the building.
