Gardone Riviera
The Shrine of the Italian Victories
A splendid museum complex greatly desired by the poet, writer and soldier Gabriele D’Annunzio, who elected it as his fixed abode from 1921 until the end of 1938, the year of his passing. The complex, apart from the Prioria – the villa where the poet lived – consists of the amphitheatre, auditorium, mausoleum and the military ship Puglia.
