Holiday apartment in Romagnano – culture, archaeology and trails

Romagnano between fortress, archaeological site and circular trail

Forte di Romagnano is located slightly above the town of the same name, on the right bank of the Adige south of Trento. It was a two-storey casemate made of hewn limestone blocks in the shape of an isosceles triangle; a moat protected the entrance. The location above the town and the clear architectural design give the structure two distinctly different perspectives to consider when planning your trip.

Archaeology spanning several periods

Riparo Romagnano Loc adds a different chronological dimension to Romagnano. The multi-period archaeological site covers the Mesolithic, Neolithic, Bronze Age and Iron Age. It has yielded one of Europe's most complete Mesolithic sequences of finds. The four periods make the site's chronological range visible and provide a clear focus for anyone interested in archaeology and early human history.

Romagnano's ecclesiastical history also has a specific local connection. The Church of Romagnano is dedicated to Saint Brigid of Ireland. The Church of Santa Brigida in Romagnano was consecrated on 28 October 1731. Its patron saint and date of consecration complement the architectural and archaeological themes with an ecclesiastical connection.
