デゼンツァーノデルガルダの湖・トップ20

Great old cutter in the port of Desenzano.

Here in the "Porto Vecchio" harbor of Desenzano del Garda, near the small bridge, lies a beautiful old cutter/ship. A wonderful sight, a great photo opportunity...

Beautiful little harbor that invites you to linger and stroll. There are many small shops and places to eat here.

Very nice little harbor with some romantic photo opportunities.

The military harbor of Peschiera had to be deepened by over 2 m in 1861 to accommodate a newly built gunboat for the Garda flotilla. When digging with a so-called paternoster excavator north of the Querini Bastion, numerous bronze objects were unearthed. These were kept by the Austrian first lieutenant Heinrich von Silber and the naval engineer Lorentz. Von Silber suspected that a ship with the items on board had once sunk here. Numerous tree trunks that were rammed into the lake bottom made the work more difficult, so it was thought that there was a fishing hut here, which is often found on Lake Garda, which is why the pottery shards that were found were disposed of. However, after von Silber contacted the archaeologist Johannes Freudenberg from Bonn, the realization emerged that there had once been a pile-dwelling settlement here.

Desenzano del Garda is a worthwhile destination on a tour. Quiet, beautiful town with a great promenade and some other sights.

Interesting old fortress town, old barracks, city gates, bridges. Lots of cafés and nice places to stop for refreshments.

Due to its favorable location, Desenzano del Garda was already a nationally important port in Roman times. The city became prosperous from the 15th century under Venetian rule, primarily through the grain trade. Porto Vecchio, the old port, flanked by magnificent Venetian-style palazzi, is still a reminder of this past.
