ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Rocca di Manerba del Garda

Rocca di Manerba del Garda is a very old castle that sits on top of a hill in a town called Manerba, in the north of Italy. Imagine a really big sand castle that has been there for hundreds and hundreds of years, except it is made out of big stones that have all been stacked on top of each other. It is very strong and has withstood the test of time.

People used to live in the castle a long, long time ago, and they would use the castle to protect themselves from enemies who would try to attack them. They would climb up to the top of the hill to get inside the castle walls, and then they would be safe from harm.

Today, people can still visit the castle and explore it, like a big adventure playground. There are lots of stairs to climb and rooms to explore where the people who used to live there would have cooked their food, slept, and fought battles. From the top of the castle, you can also see a beautiful view of the surrounding countryside and Lake Garda. It’s a really special place to visit and learn about history.
