The first certain archaeological evidence of a permanent settlement in the area of Padenghe sul Garda dates back to the Roman age. At that time there was a rustic villa and a lake port. The villa was part of a system of housing, agricultural and organizational structures scattered throughout the Lower Garda area and the morainic hills south of the lake. It probably dates back to the 2nd-3rd century AD. The port, located in San Cassiano, was used for commercial and military garrison purposes. Starting from the 5th century A.D. Lake Garda and the other pre-alpine lakes were of primary importance for the control of accesses from the north to the Po valley and was the headquarters of a patrol fleet.
