Castello Scaligero
Castello Scaligero Review
As hereditary rulers of Verona for more than a century before control of the city was seized by the Visconti in 1402, the Della Scala counted Garda among their possessions and they built this lakeside redoubt, along with almost all the other castles on the lake. You can go inside to take in the nice view of the lake from the tower, or you can swim at the nearby beach.
