Lonato del Garda (before 1 July 2007 simply Lonato; Eastern Lombard: Lunà or Lonat, locally [luˈna(t)]) is a town and municipality (Italian: comune) in the province of Brescia, in Lombardy, northern Italy. Lonato is located about halfway between Milan and Venice, on the southwest shore of Lake Garda, the biggest lake in Italy.
Neighbouring communities are Castiglione delle Stiviere, Desenzano del Garda, Calcinato, Bedizzole, Calvagese della Riviera, Padenghe sul Garda, Pozzolengo, Montichiari, and Solferino. The town is a holiday destination due to its scenic lakeside location about 5 kilometres (3 mi) from the lake and its numerous historical and artistic monuments and museums, prehistoric sites (pile dwellings), Roman ruins, Medieval castle, Baroque churches and modern museums.
