Punta San Vigilio is said to be the jewel in the crown of Lake Garda and one of the most romantic places in the world. The name of the village comes from San Vigilio the Bishop of Trento from 385 to 402 A.D. It became famous in 1540 when Agostino Brenzoni built his villa within a small park. Many famous people have stayed at the Brenzoni Villa, including, Tsar Alexander, the King of Naples, Winston Churchill, Lawrence Olivier, King Juan Carlos and the English Royal family.
