    BOSS Vicenza hosted a culture trip on October 12th to the historical road of the 52 Tunnels at night.

    The Road of 52 Tunnels — also known as the Strada delle 52 Gallerie — is an important part of World War I history. Built in 1917, the road was used to provide lateral lines of communications and supplies to the Italian V Corps in the Pasubio area. The Gallerie was needed to quickly move troops and equipment along a line out of sight and artillery fire of Austrian and Hungarian enemy forces.
