Qui il 24 giugno 1859 si scontrò l’esercito Piemontese, guidato dal re Vittorio Emanuele II, contro l’ala destra dell’esercito Austriaco, guidata dal generale Von Benedek. Nel Museo, composto da tre ampie sale, sono esposti cimeli, armi e divise relative alla battaglia e al Risorgimento in generale. Dalla terrazza della Torre, che si raggiunge mediante una rampa di oltre 400 mt., è visibile la sponda sud del Lago di Garda. Nelle immediate vicinanze è possibile ammirare le cascine coinvolte nella battaglia, mentre sullo sfondo si staglia il profilo delle Prealpi e del Monte Baldo. All’interno della Torre sono presenti affreschi che rievocano le tappe fondamentali del Risorgimento. All’interno della Cappella Ossario sono custoditi i resti di migliaia di combattenti dell’Armata Sarda e dell’Esercito Austriaco.

The Castle of Desenzano was first built before the year 1000 on the perimeter of an ancient Roman "castrum". It was built as a defensive enclosure to protect the inhabitants of the suburb and to give them shelter from frequent raids of bandits and rival neighbours and from raids of Hungarians. Between 1882 and 1885 the final transformation of the Castle was completed, when, solicited by the town authorities, the inside suburb together with the whole west side of the boundaries was demolished to make place for the barracks "Beretta" in neo-Gothic style. The restoration only consisted in integration of missing elements in walls, cleaning of stone surfaces and improvement of masonries. Under the battlements the rampart walk was reconstructed while, in the inside courtyard, a small arena was built for concerts, demonstrations and the commemoration of historical events.
