The Buonconsiglio Castle is the largest and most important monumental complex of the Trentino Alto Adige region. It was the residence of the prince-bishops of Trento from the 13th century to the end of the 18th century, and is composed of a series of buildings of different eras, enclosed by walls and positioned slightly higher than the city. Castelvecchio is the oldest nucleus, dominated by an imposing cylindrical tower; the Magno Palazzo is the 16th century expansion in the Italian Renaissance-style as commissioned by the Prince-Bishop and Cardinal Bernardo Cles (1485-1539); the Baroque-style Giunta Albertiana dates from the end of the 17th century. At the extreme south of the complex is the Torre Aquila, within which is conserved the famous Cycle of the Months, one of the most fascinating secular pictorial cycles of the late Middle Ages.
My son & I really enjoyed visiting this castle as there are lots of neat sections to visit in the old part. The "newer" parts are interesting as well, & their collection of artifacts & exhibits is impressive. Well worth the reasonable entrance fee. The cafe was also pretty good! Grounds were decorated for the holidays which was also nice. Highly recommended!

The Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art of Trento and Rovereto, the Mart, is located in Trentino, in northern Italy, and is one of the most important italian museums. Its large complex has been designed by the swiss architect Mario Botta, together with the Rovereto engineer Giulio Andreolli, and inaugurated in Rovereto on 15 December 2002.Mart has seen almost 2 million of visitors to date, and has produced original and innovative exhibitions - such as "Mountain art science myth", "The dance of the avant-gardes", "The Word in Art", "The Century of Jazz" or "Futurism 100"; exhibitions on Italian artists such as Medardo Rosso, Luigi Russolo, Thayaht, Fausto Melotti, Mario Sironi, Carol Rama, Alighiero Boetti, Vincenzo Agnetti.
The highlight of our stay in Rovereto was certainly a visit to this magnificent Museum of modern and contemporary art. The building itself is a spectacular architectural structure, but its collection is even more exciting. Even for those who don’t appreciate the modern art, it is a very interesting and informative museum with over nine thousand paintings, drawings, sculptures and other exhibits. The focal point of the collection is futurism, represented by work of great artists such as Balla, Depero and Prampolini.

On arrival we parked in first car park and walked the 3 kilometres to the entrance of the park as it was a beautiful day. We passed Malga Costa and Villa Strobele, which we visited on the way back. There were many works of art scattered around the park and a few were still being repaired after the Vaia Storm two years ago. We had a lovely walk in the open air viewing the many pieces including the unusual knotted tree, the tree cathedral and the bridge made from old newspapers! It was enjoyed by all the group, young and old! There are a couple of restaurants but you need to pre book on a busy day.

The Tridentine Diocesan Museum is located right downtown in Trento, close to the San Vigilio Cathedral, in the Palazzo Pretorio, which was in the Upper Middle Ages residence to the Prince-Bishops of Trento. Established in 1903 to house Diocese's artistic heritage, the Museum also hosts the early Christian basilica of San Vigilio, as well as the archeological artefacts dug out from the Cathedral ground between 1964 and 1977. The museum's permanent exhibition features a collection ranging form the thirteenth to the nineteenth century of paintings, wooden scupltures, tapestries and manuscripts, as well as a selection of vestments and the treasure of the Cathedral. All the collections are arranged in chronologial order, by author or by cultural ambit.
