It was restructured and enlarged by the Scaligeri on the example of the previous fortresses of Lazise, Sirmione, Peschiera. With the Serenissima it was at the center of the clashes with the Visconti, while in 1516 it was conquered by the Emperor Maximilian I of Habsburg and lost importance; became a bishop&#8217;s residence and Alfonsina Gonzaga of Novellara, wife of Gianangelo Madruzzo in the seventeenth century. In the nineteenth century it became a barracks on the border with Austria and the towers were lowered.<\/p>\n<div>\n<p><a
