The Rocca di Riva is considered to be the most important sight in Riva. The fortress was first mentioned in 1124. Over the centuries, the castle's owners changed several times and the fortress was repeatedly modified. Today, the Rocca di Riva houses the Museo Alto Garda, which displays historical documentation of the city of Riva, as well as archaeological finds from the Copper Age, around 4000 - 3000 BC.
