The name of the town first appears in a document of 937 as Garniano, perhaps derived from the Latin personal Garenius. Documents by Titus Livy and tombstones, testify to the presence of Etruscans, Celts, Cenomani and Romans.
From 1350 to 1426 the territory of Gargnano was the domain of the Viscontis as the capital of quadra in the Magnifica Patria, and then followed its history under the rule of the Republic of Venice. After the disappearance of the Serenissima, it was annexed to the Brescian Republic, whose fate it followed under Napoleonic rule, as canton capital, and then Habsburg until the Kingdom of Italy.
In 1943 Gargnano hosted Mussolini, who arrived there on October 10, where he occupied, in the locality of San Giacomo, Villa Feltrinelli (now a luxury hotel). The Duce, who had recently established the Italian Social Republic, lived in the villa with his wife, Donna Rachele, and children Romano and Anna Maria
