Villa Albertini was built in the XVI century by the Becelli family, at the time owner of the coastal strip between Garda and San Vigilio. It owes its current name to the Counts Degli Albertini who became the new owners in the XVIII century and restored it some 100 years later; it thus assumed its present appearance, similar to that of a medieval castle.

The west facade of the XVI century has remained intact, along with the nearby church dedicated to Saint Carlo Borromeo, and the evocative park designed in the second half of the XIX century; it features avenues, clearings, caves with waterfalls and fountains, towers, a belvedere, temples, and some kiosks. The park can be accessed by an avenue wondrously decorated with magnolias (Magnolia grandiflora).
