Ruins of St. Hubertus

Ruins of St. Hubertus. This villa was built in 1896 and was the summer residence and hunting lodge of the Irish Countess Emily Howard-Bury but from 1913 on, it was empty.

In the beginning of the combat operations in May 1915, the Austrians and Italians came here together at night in search for food in fraternal harmony until the Austrians burnt the villa down in June 1915.
