Description

The Trenched Camp of Rome is a defensive military system composed of fifteen Prussian-type forts and three batteries, which was erected between 1877 and 1891, to defend the external perimeter of the then urban border of Rome. This system formed a discontinuous defensive belt around the city around thirty-seven kilometers long. Each fort, located near one of the main consular access roads to the city and from which it took its respective name, was located at a distance of approximately three kilometers from the one immediately adjacent and approximately four kilometers from the Aurelian Walls.
