Sigurtà Park and Gardens

Highlight • Natural

The park is an extensive green area, the origins of which go back 600 years. It has been open to the public since 1978 and is definitely worth a visit from March to early November. Admission is currently € 14.50 for adults, dogs are not permitted.
If possible, you should not choose a weekend or public holiday (including the Italian ones!) For a visit.
If there is a lot of traffic, it is still advisable to wear a mask - also at the entrance and exit. That is also controlled.
Those who do not want to cover the distance on foot can - for a fee - borrow a golf cart or an E-BIKE or take the slow train.
Bicycles are allowed.
Depending on the season, there are always other highlights in various places.

Visconti Bridge of Borghetto

Highlight • Bridge

One of the most unusual fortifications, but one that is probably a brilliant technical solution, is the dam at Borghetto. This structure is a fortified dam wall that was intended to dam up the Mincio in order to "turn off the water" to the city of Mantua, but this never happened. The Scaligers were the builders of the dam wall.
The dam wall now serves as a bridge.

Borghetto on the Mincio

Highlight • Settlement

Borghetto sul Mincio is a municipality in the province of Verona which stands on a river ford. In medieval times it was used as a toll booth. Thanks to the Viscontis (dukes of Milan) the village acquired importance and a defensive wall was built around the town. The Duke of Milan, in a dispute with the Gonzagas in Mantua, decided to build a dam to divert the Mincio river and ultimately drain the lakes around Mantua. The project failed and a wooden bridge over the Mincio was built instead.
