In the archaeological area it is possible to walk through an ancient settlement, which has been handed over to us sealed under more than four metres of debris. This is a unique opportunity to discover daily life in a Roman village.
In 1828, Earl Luigi Tadini opened the Gallery to the public in the palace on the lakeside promenade of Lovere to display his collection of works of art.
Located on the slopes of Monte Cala, the so-called “Castelliere” has recently been interpreted as a military structure, within the military campaign conducted by Pandolfo Malatesta in 1414 to consolidate his rule over these territories.
In Via Martinoli, along the ancient road that led out of the town towards Val Camonica, numerous burials have been found that help us to understand the life of a lakeside landing place between the 1st and 4th centuries AD.
In Parre, at the Archaeological Park, the remains of the settlement of ancient Parra, an important centre (oppidum) of the Orobi, mentioned in Roman sources and active from the 11th century BC to the late Roman age (5th century AD), can be seen in a very evocative landscape.
In Predore, between the 1st century BC and the 4th century AD, there was a large villa, decorated with mosaics and frescoes and equipped with a thermal plant, situated in a scenic position on Lake Iseo, surrounded by fig and olive trees. The archaeological area allows a visit to the thermal plant.
In the last fifty years, this area, characterised by the presence of the beautiful sanctuary of Santa Maria della Torre, has been the scene of discoveries that can be traced back to a protohistoric settlement and structures from the Roman era, which testify to Sovere’s role as a transit hub from the Seriana Valley to Lake Iseo.
The site, known as the “Pianico-Sèllere natural archive”, tells a 45,000-year-long story of the environment and climate in the Alps: a deep lake formed here between about 800 and 755,000 years ago, preserving an exceptional deposit of fossil leaves and pollen.
