Museum of Mount San Michele

The Monte San Michele Museum in Sagrado is a must-see for anyone interested in learning more about the First World War. The museum is located on the site of a former battlefield, and it contains a wealth of artifacts and exhibits that tell the story of the war from the perspective of the soldiers who fought there.

The Multimedia Museum of Mount San Michele offers to visitors a unique experience in Virtual Reality (VR) that allows the viewer to see life scenes in the trenches, listen to the stories of war correspondents, all to re-experience the tragic moment of the gas attack on 29 June 1916 and the overflight of the tableland of Doberdò/Doberdob on the Spad XIII plane navigated by Francesco Baracca. Additionally, the experience is enriched through 2D and 3D interactive maps, where one can see the reconstructions of the Cima 3 gunner tunnel and the cave named after General Lukachich. Another map allows you to view the points of interest and VR tours of World War I sites in Friuli Venezia Giulia.
The Museum’s offer is enriched by Augmented Reality (AR) app. It is accessible at some points of the Outdoor Museum San Michele/Debela griža. The San Michele AR mobile app is dedicated to the entire sacred area of the outdoor museum. It will give you more information about the monuments, the routes, the galleries of Cima 3 and the entrenched lines. With the purchase of the museum ticket, visitors can activate the augmented reality (AR) contents.

The museum is accessible to all visitors. Promotion is led by PromoTurismoFVG, Ecomuseum Territories / CCM Cultural Consortium of Monfalcone.
