The Rocca Borromeo di Angera, also known as the Rocca d'Angera or Borromeo Castle, is a fortress on a hilltop above the town of Angera, in the Province of Varese, on the southern shore of Lake Maggiore in Italy. It has medieval origins and belonged first to the Archbishop of Milan, then passed to the Visconti family of Milan, and later to the Borromeo family, who own it still.
