Enjoy a holiday in Sirmione - experience a different side of Italy
Popular with the rich and powerful since the Roman era, the smell of money floats in the air.

You never know who you'll be rubbing shoulders with whilst you're out and about discovering the sublime sights a holiday Sirmione has to offer. As one would expect with a township with such a long history, Sirmione is home to a wide-variety of historically and culturally important buildings, with examples of architecture from every important historic era to be found.
Holiday Apartments in Sirmione - fascinating sights at Lake Garda
Due to its strategic location in the south-east of Lake Garda, Sirmione has been key in the plans of various armies, with opposing forces struggling to take control of the peninsula throughout the course of history. This military influence has left its mark in the impressive architecture of the region, and is the reason why many of Sirmione's most famous buildings came to be built. The Scaliger Castle, for example, is a fortification completely surrounded by water, built by the ancient inhabitants of Sirmione, who lived in fear of religious persecution at the hands of the Veronese. Developed by various armies since its conception in the 12th century, the Rocca Scaligera is well worth taking the time to explore. The Romans too have left their influence upon the township, with scores of thermal baths dotting the region and through the region's most valuable tourist attraction – the Grotto of Catullus. Don't be deceived by its name – this Roman era villa is neither a villa, nor did it house the Ancient Roman poet Catullus. Once home to a very wealthy family and containing supports dating all the way back to 150 AD, the site is now open to tourists and contains a small museum guranteed to pique the interest of any history fans. Those who are craving for more historic buildings can also visit the beautiful city Brescia located close to Sirmione.
