Fortezza di Riva, Medieval fortress in Riva del Garda, Italy.
The Fortezza di Riva stands on a strategic position overlooking Lake Garda, featuring robust walls, towers, and ramparts designed for military defense.
The fortress construction began in the early 12th century, serving as a defensive structure against invasions under Venetian and Austrian control throughout centuries.
The fortress maintains a regular schedule of exhibitions and events that present the military traditions and local heritage of the Trentino region.
Visitors can reach the fortress on foot and participate in guided tours that explain the defensive systems and architectural elements of the structure.
The fortress provides a complete view of Lake Garda's northern section, the town below, and the surrounding mountain ranges of the Italian Alps.
