Villa Lagarina with its noble residences, parks and numerous churches is a typical Trentino municipality. From the main square it is possible to admire the 17th century Palazzo Guerrieri Gonzaga. The main attractions of this village are the Baroque Assumption church, Palazzo Libera which hosts the Diocesan Museum and Palazzo Camelli, the current seat of the municipality.
Don't miss the hamlets of Villa Lagarina: visit the St. Apollonius church with its huge ancient spinning wheel in Piazza, the St. Lawrence church and the magnificent Castellano Castle in Castellano which is near the Strafalt waterfalls (cascate di Strafalt) with its caves and ancient structures. In the vicinity you can also find lago di Cel, a romantic and marvellous body of water amidst the forests.
Every year since 1978, Villa Lagarina has hosted the Cross internazionale Vallagarina, a cross country running competition included in the World Athletics Cross Country Bronze Level in which athletes from different countries participate.
