Asiago - Sacrario Militaire

Rising up on a hill close to Asiago is the Sacrario Militaire.  This is a monument to soldiers who died in WW1.  The bodies of 50,000 soldiers of all nationalities were gathered to be buried here, which makes it a very sobering place to visit.  There are so many reminders of the fighting around here - old trenches, memorials and many graveyards in the surrounding countryside and forests.
