and part of the concrete in which was imbedded.
The metal structure, shaped differently from the second casemate, has a
crack in the front (11/08/1998).
The inside of the third casemate and the access corridor seen from
the outside through the embrasure. Note on the left the connecting line
between the base and the rear cap (11/08/1998).
The inside of the third casemate seen from the entrance with the
crack which completely goes through the front wall. Underneath the embrasure
you see the seat for the traverse movement pin of the 75/27 cannon. Note the lack of symmetry with regard to the embrasure
of the casemate whose left side is larger in order to give more working
room to the artillerists (09/10/1999).
On the right wall of the casemate looking from the entrance you see
the dedication:
S.TEN. [2nd Lieutenant]
VALLERO VALERIO |
while on the left wall you see in relief the mark of the manufacturer:
FONDERIA MILANESE
DI ACCIAIO
[Milanese Steel Foundry]
VANZETTI MILANO
