Rovereto, town, Trentino–Alto Adige regione, northern Italy. Rovereto lies in the Lagarina valley, on the Leno River near its junction with the Adige, south of Trento on the Brenner-Verona railway. It was ruled by the Castelbarco family from about 1300, then by Venice (1416–1509) and Austria (1509–1918).

The 14th-century castle, once a Roman fortress, is now a war museum with the most extensive collection of World War I mementos in Italy. A mammoth bell commemorating the fallen of World War I is located on a hill south of the town. The newer section of the town has broad avenues and numerous 18th-century houses. An agricultural market and tourist and industrial centre, Rovereto has mechanical, textile, metal, and chemical industries. There is an important tobacco factory at Sacco (in the suburbs of Rovereto). Pop. (2006 est.) mun., 35,543.
