Description: Riva, ITALY - Harbor - Lake Garda: Riva del Garda is a town and comune in the northern Italian province of Trento of the Trentino Alto Adige region. It is also known simply as Riva. People from Riva are known as Rivani. Riva del Garda belonged to the Republic of Venice, the Bishopric of Trent, the Napoleonic Kingdom of Italy and later (1815–1918) to the Austro-Hungarian empire. Since the end of World War I (3 November 1918), Riva del Garda, with the rest of the Trentino, became part of the Kingdom of Italy. Riva was the terminus for the 24 kilometers (15 miles) long Mori–Arco–Riva railway line, opened in 1891. However, the railway closed in 1936 and the railway terminus has been converted into a restaurant. Riva del Garda is located at the north-western corner of Lake Garda, approximately 70 meters (230 feet) above sea level. The town is located at the southern edge of the Italian Alps, near the Dolomites. It is bordered by Monte Rocchetta to the west and Monte Brione, 376 meters (1,234 ft.) above sea level, to the east. East of Riva del Garda is the village Torbole, bordered by Monte Baldo. In 1991, the population was recorded as 13,410. The 2001 census listed the population as 14,758. An official estimate in 2004 calculated the population as 15,151. In 2013 it was listed at 15,838. This Divided Back Era (1907-15) postcard is in good condition but shows some edge wear. J.H.
