The MAG reopens after the winter break closure

The Mag Alto Garda Museum will reopen on Saturday 23 March 2019, after the winter break closure of the last two months. 

The MAG Museo Alto Garda is comprised of the Museum of Riva del Garda, which looks directly onto the lake itself, and the G. Segantini City Gallery in Arco, which will also be reopened soon, i.e. on 5 April 2019, with a partial renovation of the exhibition halls.

In the first section of the MAG, dedicated to Archaeology, the famous stele statues are to be found, precious findings of international interest, dating back to the Copper Age.
The Picture Gallery features landscapes painted by those 19th-century painters struck by the beauty of the marvellous natural views of the Garda area, featuring works of artists such as Pietro Ricchi, Vincenzo Vela and Francesco Hayez.
The History section portrays the past of Riva del Garda and the Lower Sarca area in general, characterised by the passage of various conquerors, such as the Veronese, the Milanese and the Venetians, right up to the golden period in which Riva del Garda became a tourist resort for illustrious guests, such as Thomas Mann and Franz Kafka.

Throughout the year, the Museum also dedicates much space to temporary exhibitions and research projects, aimed at offering both a contemporary interpretation of the historic and artistic heritage in the Museum's possession and views of the landscape and contemporary culture

A must for all visitors to the museum is the climb up to the Mastio, the main tower of theRoccaoffering a breathtaking view of the city and the lake.
