The 2 world war
«   »

During WWI the III Corp of the 1st Italian Army fought in the Ledro Valley and they occupied at once the southern mountains, while the northern part of the valley remained in Austrian hands. In the beginning the bottom of the valley and its villages became no man’s land, later they were occupied by the Italian troops. The people were deported to Bohemia and Moravia. It was a position-war characterized by many small assaults and conquests of pieces of soon-abandoned land. With the victory of Italy on November 4th 1918 the Ledro villages could finally join their motherland. During WWII The Ledro Valley had a relatively quiet time.
