DESCRIPTION:
BERSAGLIERI’S MONUMENT
The landscape setting of the Euganean Hills gives the monument a solemn and evocative atmosphere.
The monument is made of stone and features a plaque representing the Bersaglieri corps, distinguished by the feathered hat and the bugle.
It thus celebrates the bond between the Bersaglieri Corps and the citizens, highlighting their role in the wars — crucial moments in Italian history.
The Bersaglieri are an elite corps of the Italian Army, famous for their speed, discipline, and distinctive plumed hats decorated with black capercaillie feathers. Founded in 1836, they were originally light infantry trained to move quickly and fight with agility — often recognized by their tradition of running even during parades. Today, the Bersaglieri represent courage, energy, and national pride, and they are a beloved symbol of Italian military history often celebrated in monuments and public ceremonies across Italy.
