Considered one of the most beautiful villages in Italy, Montisola has a circumference of about 9 kilometers, an altitude of 600 meters and a total area of 4.5 square kilometers which makes it the largest lake island in Europe and it was recently named one of the Europeans best destinations.
It is the ideal place for lovers of unspoiled nature and tranquility as you can only move on foot, by bicycle or by small buses that run a regular service. On the island there are numerous paths that allow you to explore the territory, the most famous is the one that from Peschiera climbs to the Sanctuary of the Madonna della Ceriola, a church perched on the rock. From here you can enjoy a very suggestive panorama!
Another place of interest is the Rocca Martinengo, visible halfway up the hill above Sensole. It was built in the 14th century by the Oldofredi family; its tower is unusually placed in the center of the castle, surrounded by a moat. The building was later transformed into a residence by the Martinengo family in the 15th century.
It was the scene of the fantastic work of art by Christo "The Floating Piers" from 18 June to 3 July 2016, which allowed the beauty of these places to be known to the whole world, comparable to real oases of well-being.
