Built in the 1400s and then subsequently expanded, rebuilt and fortified, the castle has been actively guarding the passage between Veneto and Trentino, playing an active role in warfare all the way through the First World War, changing hands back and forth from Venetian, and later Italian, to Austrian. Today, it has been restored and now houses the Italian War History Museum, which stores a large collection of armaments and memorabilia, which it had been gathering since the 1920s, focusing on the First World War period.

An accumulation of rocks, known for being mentioned in Dante's Inferno, Canto XII. In Longfellow's translation, "Such as that ruin is which in the flank // Smote, on this side of Trent, the Adige, // Either by earthquake or by failing stay, // For from the mountain's top, from which it moved, // Unto the plain the cliff is shattered so, // Some path 'twould give to him who was above."
