Sentinels of Stone 2018

From fort to fort along the Path of Peace

Cultural exhibitions and events
Forte Belvedere [ Archivio FMST - Ph Carlo Baroni]

The festival held in Trentino’s Circuit of Forts is back this year: a rich programme of shows, hikes, children's workshops, readings, theatre and exhibitions in the unique and picturesque fortresses of Trentino.

Trentino’s Circuit of Forts announces the fourth Sentinelle di Pietra exhibition, more than 100 years since the start of hostilities between Austria and Italy. From one fort to another on the Path of Peace - from Tonale to the Dolomites, via Lake Garda - the project aims to develop and promote the Forts of Trentino. Sites designed for war will be transformed into instruments for spreading knowledge about history and peace, via the arts.

Eight different theatre shows feature in the rich and varied programme, some of which hosted in three Austro-Hungarian forts: representations that offer new insights and reflections on the Great War.

For families, especially the youngest, there will be a series of easy hikes along the Path of Peace to nine forts, accompanied by moments of theatre and suitable for everyone.

There is also a full calendar of visits to the forts accompanied by theatre.

New in 2018 is the series of events entitled "Storie di guerra, luoghi di pace" ("Stories of war, sites of peace"), four meetings with writers, journalists and scholars who in their literary activity have dealt with the theme of war (yesterday and today). The meeting places are of the most evocative refuges located along the Path of Peace.

For more information on individual events, see the CALENDAR OF EVENTS.
