La Rocca di Garda is a rock between the towns of Garda (in the north) and Bardolino (in the south), which rises steeply above the lake of the same name below.
It consists of two main peaks, separated by a hill: the Rocca Vecchia (291m above sea level) and the hill with the hermitage of San Giorgio (306m above sea level).
The historical significance of this mountain dates back to the 5th century BC, when a castle was built on the summit during the Lombard era, which still gives the mountain its name today, even if there are hardly any traces of the castle itself left. The place name "Garda" is derived directly from this characteristic fortress (from the Old Germanic "Warda" or "Warte" i.e. "guard" or "fortress") and replaced the older Latin name Lacus Benacus. In 1193, Emperor Henry VI handed over. the Rocca di Garda to the city of Verona for 700 silver tokens.

The Rocca di Garda is a steep rock on the eastern shore of Lake Garda, south of the town of Garda. A castle stood here 1000 years ago. Today, unfortunately, only a few stones of it can be seen.
