Il Museo espone una collezione di cimeli di guerra raccolti in Val Sàdole e a Ziano da Aldo Zorzi.
Strategic starting point for excursions to Cauriol, Cardinal, Busa Alta: site of fierce battles in the summer-autumn of 1916.
The initial core of the collection was formed through substantial discoveries made during the numerous excursions undertaken by Aldo Zorzi and his family on the trails and scree slopes leading to the nearby peaks of Cauriol, Cardinal, Busa Alta, Litegosa, and Copolà. Subsequently, the collection was enriched through donations from private citizens of Ziano who, encouraged by Zorzi, recovered artifacts in the attics collected immediately post-war by their parents or grandparents. They felt gratified by the fact that “their” pieces contributed to forming a “place of memory.” Among other artifacts, we find: Malfatti wire-cutting pliers, Steyr rifle barrels, sentinels’ overshoes made of cloth or straw, an Austrian Schwarzlose mod. 07/12 machine gun, an Austrian rollmine. Of particular importance are a Farina helmet and some rocket pistols.
