An important anniversary
Exactly 100 years ago, in 1926, Italy established its first local tourism boards, known as Aziende di Cura, di Soggiorno o di Turismo. Among them was the organisation in Riva del Garda, the forerunner of today’s Tourism Board, Garda Dolomiti – Azienda per il Turismo.
The history of tourism in the Northern Lake Garda (Alto Garda) area began much earlier, in the 19th century. However, 1926 marks the creation of an independent organisation dedicated to welcoming visitors and supporting the development of the tourism sector.
It is a significant milestone, and one we would like to celebrate together with the entire Garda Trentino community.
A long history of tourism on Lake Garda
The history of tourism in the Alto Garda area began long before the Tourism Board was established and is closely intertwined with the social and economic development of the area.
To explore and share this rich heritage of entrepreneurship, hospitality and destination promotion, we will be hosting a series of events and initiatives from June to November.
