Tips

San Pietro in Mavino, also San Pietro in Mavinas, is a small church in the Lombard municipality of Sirmione on Lake Garda. It is known for its frescoes. Although often overlooked, it is considered one of the most beautiful churches on Lake Garda.

The church is located north of Sirmione, about halfway between the center of Sirmione and the Grottoes of Catullus. Its isolated location amidst olive and cypress groves means that few visitors notice it.[2] It lies on the second elevation of the promontory that extends northward into Lake Garda. Its patron saint, from the beginning, has been St. Peter. The nickname in Mavino comes from a contraction of the Latin term in summas vineas, which refers to the vineyards once located here.

The church was originally built in the 8th century, rebuilt several times, and its current form dates back to 1320. San Pietro in Mavino is a classical hall church, but it has no vault; the roof truss is exposed. And the walls feature a number of very old murals.

The bell tower stands alone and is currently being restored (June 2025). At first glance, the small church isn't recognizable as a church. It could also be a very large old mansion.

The interior of the church is rather plain, but still worth seeing.
