Description
The Fortifications at Peschiera del Garda is a unique monument of defensive architecture, listed by UNESCO. This impressive fortress combines elements from different historical eras - from Roman times, through the Scaliger period, to Venetian and Napoleonic modifications.
Five powerful bastions (Guerini, San Marco, Contarana, Feltrin, Tognon) and two gates (Porta Verona and Porta Brescia) form a unique defensive complex that will delight lovers of history, architecture and militaria.
The former artillery barracks now hosts conferences, exhibitions and cultural events, adding a contemporary dimension to this historic site.
