Castellaro Lagusello

Castellaro Lagusello, a village belonging to the municipality of Monzambano, is located on the northern end of the province of Mantua, at the center of the imposing morainic amphitheater of Lake Garda and about ten kilometers away from Lake Garda. Settlement in the Castellaro area dates back to the Bronze Age: traces of communities were discovered on the shores of the glacial lake at the base of the hill where the fortified village has stood since the thirteenth century. One of the ten towers that guarded the village’s only access point was recently restored. It is currently open to visitors and hosts exhibitions and contemporary art installations during the tourist season.
