The area of Mengore hill (453 m) west from Most na Soči settlement (virtual excursion) was the core of the Austria-Hungary defense of the Soča River bridge-passage at town Tolmin. The defense line was heavily fortified with the defense trenches, shelters, artillery positions  and caverns. The area was all the time  of the eleven Italian offensives of Soča River front line from May 23rd 1915 to the September 13th,  1917 under the continuous siege and artillery cannonading.
