Memorial Ceremony on Mengore

5th April 2025

The General Boroević Historical Society (Zgodovinsko društvo generala Boroevića) organized a ceremony in memory of the Austro-Hungarian and Italian soldiers at the Mengore Outdoor Museum last Saturday. The event was also attended by the Mayor of Idrija Municipality Tomaž Vencelj and his delegation, as the inscription on the cavern is actually dedicated to the soldier Valentin Kanduč from Idrija.
The programme was attended by the military vicar and the Choir Dragonarji Generala Maistra – DR5 from Vipava, as well as representatives of various historical societies such as Peski, 1313, Isonzo Front, IR 17, IR 87 and Friuli-Venezia Giulia, which help preserve and research the heritage of World War I.
Representatives of the Walk of Peace Foundation, Leon Četrič and Miha Uršič, presented the Foundation’s activities and the events that took place in this area during the Isonzo Front.
