Borgo Piave Sotteranea

On Sunday, April 12th, from 9:00 AM to 12:00 PM and from 2:00 PM to 5:00 PM, the Borgo Piave ETC aps association opens to the public the Borgo Piave air raid shelter, located on Alzaia, near the Vittoria Bridge in Belluno.

It will be possible to enter the Borgo Piave shelter, by reservation only, in groups of 20 people every 40 minutes during the defined hours and discover the place where, towards the end of the Second World War, the inhabitants of the village and others fled to find safety during air raids carried out by the Allies.

These shelters were actually built in 1944 when Belluno was under the direct control of Nazi troops along with Trento and Bolzano as part of "Alpenvorland" operation.
On the walls, you will see evocative writings, in a typical 1930s font, that read “Calm,” “Silence,” "No smoking" and instructions on the behavior to adopt inside the tunnels.

The guided tours are based on the thesis of architect Vincenzo Russotto on underground Belluno.

A minimum voluntary contribution starting from 5 euros per person will be useful for the association's spring and summer activities (the portal is free as the contribution is given on site).
