Moniga del Garda Apartments & Villas (Lake Garda)

For holidays in the Lake Garda region of Italy you can book accommodation in apartments in one of the many towns around Lake Garda. These towns have a wealth of holiday accommodation to suit all tastes. Moniga was supposedly named after the goddess Diana Munichia, and some scholars believe a temple dedicated to her once existed in the area. The town lies at the centre of the hills that stretch from Desenzano to Sal?. The old part of the town sits on a hill, while the modern section surrounded by olive trees descends to the lake and its picturesque port.

The economy is based on tourism, and there are many hotels, camping sites, residences and services. Olive groves and vineyards flourish in the area. Moniga is the largest producer of "Chiaretto" a local wine that is famous worldwide. The Castle is worth a visit; built in the 10th century to face the Hungarian invasions. The castle sits near the main road and is still in fairly good condition. There is only one entrance at the centre of the eastern wall, where signs of an old drawbridge can still be seen. The crenelated city walls have four small round lookout towers on each corner. Three more towers are situated at the centre of the north, south and west walls. The square keep is now a bell tower. The Church of St. Martin, facing the castle, it is one of the oldest parish churches of the Valtenesi area.
