L'isola di Loreto sorge nel Lago d'Iseo, a nord di Montisola, ed è di proprietà privata (Famiglia Pesenti - Italcementi). Alla fine del Quattrocento l'isola fu acquistata dalle Suore di S.Chiara di Brescia, che vi installarono un convento. La struttura venne però dismessa già entro il 1580 quando durante la visita di Carlo Borromeo si ricorda la presenza di un eremita di nome Pietro. Nel 1696 Vincenzo Coronelli, geografo veneziano, ricorda l'isola come di proprietà degli eredi del Conte Alessandro Martinengo. Nel XIX secolo era di proprietà della Duchessa Felicita Bevilacqua La Masa, e successivamente, con un atto del 9 ottobre 1900, fu venduta al comm. Vincenzo Richeri, capitano di vascello nella Regia Marina e marito della Signora Giannina Zirotti di Sale Marasino. Nel 1910 il cav. Vincenzo Richieri costruì sull'isola un castello in stile neogotico attorno al quale creò un giardino ricco di conifere, un porticciolo e due torrette faro. (fonte Wikipedia)
