Valeggio sul Mincio, Medieval commune in Province of Verona, Italy.
Valeggio sul Mincio is a commune in the Province of Verona between Veneto and Lombardy along the Mincio River. Narrow streets wind through the old center while vineyards and fields cover the gentle hills.
The medieval settlement grew at a strategic point where an important river crossing linked Verona to Mantua. In the 14th century, the Visconti family built a fortification with a long bridge to control the territory between regions.
Traditional mills along the river once ground grain for centuries and still shape the local landscape today. Local families continue making handmade tortellini following recipes passed down through generations.
Bike paths lead from here into the surrounding area and suit easy rides along the river or through vineyards. The historic center is easy to explore on foot, with comfortable shoes recommended for the cobbled streets.
On one summer day in June, the bridge dam transforms into a giant table where thousands of guests dine together on traditional pasta. The river area was already inhabited during the Bronze Age, as excavations from the 1950s show.
