Store Your Luggage Around Brescia With Bounce

Brescia is a city in the northern region of Italy that nestles at the foot of the Alps between Lake Garda and Lake Iseo where there's history on almost every corner. The houses lining the streets of Brescia are dwarfed to miniature by the city's cathedrals, old and new, its intact medieval castle, the San Salvatore Monastery and the Pallata Tower.

Visit Brescia and you'll be able to immerse yourself in the world of the ancient Romans as you explore the city's unequaled example of a Roman Forum or any of its many museums dedicated to the Roman era. Here you'll get to shop the authentic Italian way amid the hustle and bustle of market stalls piled high with fresh local produce or in quaint one-off stores in its historic center. Eating out will be a sheer pleasure no matter whether you choose to dine in a restaurant or grab a slice of pizza al taglio and eat it on the go.

Top Things to Do In Brescia

Brescia really is a place where you can lose yourself in the history and culture of both ancient and modern Italy. There are museums in Brescia dedicated to more than the Romans, so make time to check those out too. The pace of life is slower in Brescia than other large European cities so be prepared not to rush through any shopping or dining experience, but be ready to do it the Italian way.

Museums In Brescia

The diversity of the museums in Brescia is incredible. In the museums in Brescia, you can browse exhibits of weaponry dating back to the Middle Ages, collections of impressive religious iconography or stunning black and white photographs as well as grand structures from the Roman Empire period, to name just a few of the themes they're dedicated to.

• Roman Museum – The Roman Museum or to give it its full title, the Capitolium of Brixia, is a part indoor and part outdoor museum. The largest part of the museum is the remains of the temple structure that once stood at the heart of the ancient city. The ruins and the adjoining amphitheater are a UNESCO World Heritage Site and the artifacts that have been recovered from here, including a statue of the Winged Victory, are on exhibition in the site's museum building.
• Museo Mille Miglia – The Museo Mille Miglia is dedicated to preserving the history of a one-thousand-mile Italian road race that was prohibited in the 1950s for being too dangerous. On display are many of the vintage vehicles against backdrops of locations they would have passed on the way. While the race in its previous form is no longer allowed, an annual classic and vintage car rally is held in its place around mid-June time.
• Luigi Marzoli Arms Museum – The Luigi Marzoli Arms Museum is housed inside the Visconti Tower of the Brescia Castle which is the perfect location for this huge collection of medieval arms. There are ten galleries in total containing swords, pistols, suits of armor, shields, and even some more up-to-date arms from current times. As well as the armory, there are mosaics, frescoes, and the ruins of a Roman temple.

Shopping In Brescia

When you go shopping in Brescia you'll be able to choose between olde-world style browsing of boutique stores in the historic center, modern, but out-of-town malls, or the artisan markets where the producers proudly show off their goods. If you need a spot to stow your bags while you're out shopping look for the closest Bounce location on our app.

• Historic Center – To go shopping the authentic Italian way you need to scout around the streets of the city's historic center. The historic center is a labyrinth of streets below the castle where as well as lots of boutique-style stores, you find a few more of Brecia's museums. Good places to start are the Piazza della Loggia and the Piazza Tito Speri.
• Antegnate Gran Shopping – To find a decent-sized mall in Brescia you'll need to go out of the city to the nearby town of Antegnate thirty minutes away. The Antegnate Gran Shopping houses a wide array of stores offering international and Italian brands of clothing, shoes, and homeware. The center opens seven days of the week from nine in the morning until nine in the afternoon. Is it worth the half-hour trip? Definitely.
• Padernello Earth Market – While this isn't a daily or even weekly event, if your visit to Brescia coincides with the Padernello Earth Market, it's something not to be missed. The Padernello Earth Market is held in the grounds of the Padernello Castle every third Sunday of the month. The market is all about local produce and delicious food products made by artisans so you'll find great home-cured meats, preserves, cheese, and homemade pasta.

Dining In Brescia

Italian food is so good, even though there are other cuisines available in Brescia, why eat anything else? Brescia is renowned for its sparkling wine and weirdly, its caviar, so if that's not an indication of the quality of food you'll find there then nothing is.

• La Vineria – La Vineria is an atmospheric restaurant housed in an arched-roof renovated cellar on Via Dieci Giornate in Brescia's historic center. They have a full a la carte menu, but the best thing to go for here is the traditional menu consisting of three local dishes like casoncelli, a pasta dish served with sage butter sauce, and braised beef cheek for a very reasonable price. La Vineria specializes in local wine and are happy to advise on the best tipple to accompany your dinner.  
• Osteria Vecchio Botticino – The Osteria Vecchio Botticino in Piazzale Arnaldo da Brescia serves a menu of culinary delights originating from the northern region of Italy. In this stylish, but unpresumptuous restaurant they serve hearty plates of meat, fish, and pasta prepared the old-fashioned way. While the food may not look like it deserves a Michelin star, it certainly tastes as if it should have three.
• Trattoria Buca – Trattoria Buca on the Viale Stazione is everything a classic family-owned Italian restaurant should be and more. Trattoria Buca's premises are bright, spacious, and decked out in natural pine which gives it a fresh feel. Here they create seasonal menus from fresh produce of local Brescia dishes garnished with a flourish of truffle.
