The Castello de Zanna is a small fortress, situated in the frazione of Majon.
It consists of low, white outer walls and two white corner towers, with a small chapel dedicated to the Holy Trinity.
The construction of the castle began in 1694, but on 19 August 1696 work was interrupted; the building remained unfinished in 1809 when it was burned by French revolutionary troops who had invaded Ampezzo.
Since then the castle has undergone restoration.

Forte Tre Sassi (or Forte Tra i Sassi) is a fortress constructed in 1897 during the Austro-Hungarian period on the Passo Valparola.
It lies between Sass de Stria and Piccolo Lagazuoi, dominating the passage between the Passo Falzarego and Val Badia in South Tyrol (Alto Adige).
It was part of the large complex of Austrian fortifications built on the Italian border in the late 19th and early 20th centuries.

Rendered unusable due to a bombing by the Italians on 5 July 1915, the ruins remained in a state of disrepair until the advent of the 21st century, when it was restored by the local administration of Ampezzo with the assistance of the Lacedelli family.
The fort houses a museum containing relics related to the First World War.

Castello di Botestagno (also known as Podestagno) was a medieval fort perched on a rock in the valley of the river Boite, a little farther north of Cortina, in the town of Prà del Caštel.
It is believed that it was first erected as a stakeout during conflict with the Lombards between the 7th and 8th centuries, with the aim of dominating the three valleys that converge beneath it: the Boite, the Val di Fanes, and the Val Felizon.
The cornerstone, however, probably dates to the 11th century.
It was held by the Germans until 1077, and then by the patriarchs of Aquileia (12th century) and Camino (13th century), until Botestagno became the seat of a captaincy.
It then passed into Venetian hands and finally to the Habsburgs.
During the 18th century the castle gradually lost importance until it was auctioned in 1782 by order of Emperor Joseph II.
Today the fort has now almost completely disappeared; only the remnants of what must have been the wine cellars and the foundations remain, now weathered and largely covered up by vegetation.
