Well connected with A4 Motorway, the principal railway lines and the most important resorts overlooking Lake Garda (through the charming local harbour), Peschiera del Garda has been a traditional holiday destination for several decades. In the Middle Ages, its strategic position made it the centre of fierce fighting among numerous local lords. The defensive walls, Fortress and Porta Verona date back to the mid sixteenth century, but the village had previously been fortified over the course of the VI century.
The city's most important sacred building, which cherishes precious historic-artistic beauties of great value, is the Sanctuary of Madonna del Frassino, which was built in the place where a miracle is said to have taken place in the early sixteenth century. It cherishes a small statue depicting the Madonna that is said to have appeared to a poor farmer among the branches of an ash tree, which makes the church a traditional religious mecca for large numbers of pilgrims and believers from all over the world. The elegance and architectural austerity of the inner structure and the precious artworks which are cherished by the inner rooms make the sanctuary one of the most appreciated cultural destinations for those flocking to Lake Garda.
Not to be missed is a charming excursion to the nearby Lake Frassino, which attracts the lovers of nature since its shores provide a rich habitat for numerous species of animals. The lovers of active holidays will have the opportunity to enjoy the beautiful 40-kilometre-long cycle path which connects Peschiera with Mantova following the course of the river and the boundaries of the local park.
Apart from stylish shops, trendy clubs and exciting sports activities, during summer young people are attracted by the amazing shows and events which liven up the streets of Peschiera del Garda.
