Located in the northern part of the province of Mantua, Lombardy
Upper Mantua (Italian: Alto Mantovano/Upper Mantuan dialect: Alt Mantuà)[1] is a geographical area located northwest of the city of Mantua in the province of the same name and bordering the provinces of Brescia and Verona, bordered to the north by the morainic hills of Lake Garda, to the east by the province of Verona, to the northwest by the province of Brescia, and to the south by the plains of Middle Mantua.
The most significant centers are Castiglione delle Stiviere, Castel Goffredo, and Asola, in whose areas the clothing industry was particularly developed, employing about 7,500 people in 2013.[2] The northern part of Mantua is influenced - in its dialectal inflection, traditions, historical events, religious upbringing, even political choices - by its proximity above all to the province of Brescia and, in part, to that of Verona.[3] The area has a typically agricultural economy, although the post-World War II years saw an increase in industrial production and a lively tertiary activity.
