We visited this on a wet day, expecting to kill about half an hour. In fact we spent well over 2 hours there. There is an excellent interactive display of the nature and geology of the area, lovely views and information on Goethe and the history of the area. Well worth a visit

If visiting or staying in Malcesine, visit the small castle, it a wonderful way to see the town, lake and old red roof tops from the tower. There is a lovely side area that is set out for a wedding, and if I can convince my partner to tie the knot, it will have to be here, it is magical.... More

We got married in August 2013 at Malcesine Castle with Lake Garda Weddings. We went afterwards to the Michelin-star restaurant in Malcesine for the meal. I recommend this combination, and the services of Lake Garda Weddings: the organisation was upbeat, fun and they knew everyone and everything that was needed locally, and Gwen's photos of the day were really beautiful....

We chose Malcesine castle for our wedding after finding the Lake Garda Wedfings website, and from that moment on, we never looked back!! We've just returned from the most perfect, magical and beautiful wedding you could imagine. If, like I did, you read all of the reviews about Lake Garda Weddings and thought, 'it sounds too good to be true'...... More

It is worth going uphill through the charming, pebble covered narrow alleys to get inside the castle for the view over Lake Garda is mesmerising.
