A faded black and white photo with a slightly retro taste shows parks and villas, sumptuous ladies in pompous dresses in the company of young men wearing top hats. The Belle époque was represented by the brilliant lifestyle of the Can-Can dance in Parisian clubs and the myth of the Titanic. Both symbols belonged to noble people coming from Mitteleurope. Unfortunately, this optimistic vision of life was suddenly interrupted by the start of the First World War. But why does this social and cultural phenomenon maintain such a strong hold here on West Lake Garda?
COMPARTE proposes a tour with an optional addition: a view of the lake from the water’s edge. Sonia will tells many curious stories about the noble residences and their rich owners. The places involved include Salò, Gardone, and Island of Garda.
