Castello Scaligero di Sirmione

This is an amazing castle protecting a beautiful little town. The views from the top of the castle are outstanding and the history of the castle is fascinating. Well worth a visit if you are in the area. Parking can be difficult as it’s a very busy area, we used Grif Parking which was only about 350m from the castle and reasonably priced.

The Scaligero Castle is magnificent! Walking over the drawbridge and exploring the grounds felt like stepping back in time. Highly recommend it for its history and beautiful photo opportunities.

It is one of the best-preserved medieval castles in Italy and features a rare fortified harbor. Stunning views of Lake Garda, well-preserved towers and walls, and a unique glimpse into medieval military architecture in a truly scenic setting.

Very cool place to visit. There is only one road in and out so be ready for traffic. Parking can also be a problem as well. We did have to wait a bit to get onto the parking lot. It is just a place to visit for a day trip. I would spend more than a day around there as it is very small and crowded.

A very beautiful and well-maintained castle surrounded by a majestic fortress wall. You can choose between a variety of gelaterias, or take a motorboat ride around the peninsula. The only downside is if it rains heavily and there is nowhere to take shelter.

We visited the magnificent Scaligero Castle in Sirmione 🏰, a truly unforgettable experience! Walking along the walls and admiring Lake Garda 🏞️ was something unique. . The towers and ramparts offer breathtaking views, a real spectacle! I highly recommend a visit to this gem, a wonder not to be missed! The entrance ticket costs €8 / person #CastelloScaligero #Sirmione #LakeGarda #Italy 🇮🇹❤️💯👌 25.09.2025

Nice castle, but expected sth more looking on number of tourists and a traffic jams to park even 3km away from the castle. The best option to avoid a long queue to the tickets purchase is to buy it online - then you do not wait at all. I'm giving 5 stars as I enjoyed it and the tickets price was ok - 8 EUR.

We went there at around 6pm and it was really quiet. The sunset was stunning and city view was beautiful under the sunset. Worth the hiking from city centre. Nice castle!
