Forte Pozzanghi, one of the forts built by the Royal Italian Army, primarily to defend the Colle De Nava between 1880 to 1888,
To protect Piedmont, it was built between the plains of Piedmont and Liguria from an attack from the French army.
There were numerous things such as:
Drawbridge mechanisms
Well for aeration and passage of weapons and ammunition in case of combat
Water cistern
Various fighting positions, mortar,cannon, and infantry
Embrasures for a field artillery piece, which was enclosed by a removable iron grating.
Staircase made of military grade wrought iron, which has been partly removed.

In this video you can see: the mechanisms of the drawbridge (0:30), the well for aeration and the passage of ammunition in case of combat (0:35), the water cistern (0:37), various fighting positions, mainly for infantry. At 0:43 one can see one of the embrasures for an artillery piece, enclosed by a removable iron grating. The interior staircase, made of wrought iron, is partly removed. The fort, a real tower intended to serve as an artillery platform - with the main pieces placed on the top terrace in the barbette - was part of the Nava entrenched camp, the main element of which was the Forte Centrale that still closes the provincial road today.

It’s commonly known as a Martello.
By the construction it’s 1800’s. Built to resist canon fire.
The pit is the well the Martello is built on. Usually with a minimum capacity for it occupants for a month or two incase of a siege or attack.
There would have been a coal store also in there.
They’re really cool buildings.
Looks like it received some repairs in ww2 or ww1 but was decommissioned after that

This is Fort Possenghi, one of the fortifications built by the Royal Italian Army to defend the Colle di Nava between 1880 and 1888, on the border between Piedmont and Liguria, to protect the Piedmont plain from a French attack. There is an identical fortification on the pass, called Forte Richelmo.
