City in Italy

Trento

3 things to see

The capital of Trentino, the city where the Council of Trent (1545-1563) reformed the Catholic Church. The Buonconsiglio Castle, the frescoed Renaissance buildings, and the MUSE science museum (designed by Renzo Piano) make it a genuine overnight stop between Verona and Bolzano. Wandering the frescoed old town, the cathedral square, and the surrounding Dolomite foothills costs nothing, and a coffee or a glass of local wine stays cheaper than in the bigger Veneto cities. Late spring and early autumn pair good walking weather with thinner crowds.
