    Exactly how tells Javio: it is a museum in memory of cold war. It is a private site. County Folgaria passo Coe,  has bought the old Nato base that was not operative since 1975 and had the idea of this Museum for Memory. For pictures in this site no permissions are required.

    Nike missiles are all decommisioned at this point, I believe. There is a similar installation Just north of the Golden Gate bridge near San Francisco.

    From my experience,missiles generally means no photos!

    Why you tell that? This siete is testimonial, a kind of museum of the cold war. It is not a true working militar base. By the way, I like very much the pictures.
