Gargnano, Lakeside municipality on Lake Garda, Italy

The municipality stretches along the western shore of Lake Garda, encompassing twelve small villages and extending from the lakeside to mountainous terrain.

Dating back to 937, documented as Garniano, the area witnessed settlements of Etruscans, Celts, Cenomani, and Romans throughout its early history.

The Centomiglia regatta in September attracts sailing enthusiasts from across Europe, marking the largest sailing competition on Lake Garda.

The municipality provides access to multiple outdoor activities including sailing, mountain biking, hiking trails, and water sports facilities along Lake Garda.

Villa Feltrinelli, a historical residence turned luxury hotel, served as Benito Mussolini's headquarters during the Italian Social Republic period.
