Armistice of villa Giusti
- Armistice of villa Giusti
The Armistice of villa Giusti ended warfare between Italy and Austria-Hungary on the Italian Front during World War I. The armistice was signed on November 3 1918 in the Villa Giusti and was to take effect 24 hours later.
During the Battle of Vittorio Veneto in October 1918, the troops Austria-Hungary were defeated. From 28 October onwards, Austria-Hungary sought to negotiate a truce while the Italians hesitated, advancing in the meantime, reaching Trento, Udine, and landing in Trieste. It took several days of diplomacy under controversial circumstances until the armistice was signed.
Due to a premature order of the Austro-Hungarian high command, many of the empire's forces stopped fighting on November 3, allowing Italian troops to advance unopposed into Tyrol up to Innsbruck. The Kingdom of Italy was allowed to keep Trentino-Alto Adige/Südtirol after the war, as promised by the Allies in the 1915 London Pact in order to persuade the Italians to break the Triple Alliance and to join in against the Austrians.
