Piazza delle Erbe

The central Piazza delle Erbe was the focal point of urban life in ancient Verona. It is located on the site of the ancient Roman Forum. Originally it was large (56 meters x 68 meters) and rectangular and then it was adapted to a Medieval shape and reduced in size. It was then delimited by the construction of the Palazzo del Comune. During the Scaligera period, it became a center for trade and commerce; to this end, various symbolic elements were added, such as the Fountain of the Madonna Verona, the Market Column (a Gothic structure built in 1401 to bear the viscount's insignia), the berlina (a marble canopy built to host the investiture of public office) and the Colonna di San Marco.

Corso Porta Borsari

This pedestrian-only shopping district of Corso Porta Borsari begins with a grandiose arch built by the Romans. This ancient sun-bleached wall was built in the third century as part of the ancient city's "decumano" gate. Upon passing through these imposing walls one is greeted with a narrow street lined with multitudinous boutiques selling hard to find local products in addition to gourmet restaurants, wine bars, and cafés such as Caffè Tubino. The atmosphere is vibrant while retaining a small-town feel, which makes this historic street the perfect place to take a stroll and drink in fair Verona.

Giardino Giusti

The Giardino Giusti contains all the features of a typical Renaissance garden: geometrical layout of flowerbeds and hedgerows, fountains, grottos, mask, mythological statues, avenues of cypresses and a maze. Mozart, Goethe, kings and emperors have all visited this garden, which, for four centuries has been one of the most beautiful and well-visited in the whole of the Veneto. The garden, designed by Agostino Giusti as a setting for the villa which bears his name, is made up of three sections: a lawn, a wooded hill with a ravine and cliff and landscaped terraces with a belvedere.

Museo Civico di Castelvecchio

Castelvecchio was founded in the mid 14th century at the behest of Cangrande II della Scala, as a princely residence with fortress, and was called Castle of San Martino in Aquaro because it incorporated a small church dedicated to the saint. Around the beginning of the 15th century, after the viscounts built two forts on the hills (St. Peter and St. Felix), it acquired its current name. Over the centuries, it continued to have military functions - with the domination of Venice, it was the seat of an academy; with Napoleon, two new wings were added to the building. Then, with the Austrians, it played a strategic role in the general plan of fortification of Verona. In the 1920s, Verona municipality decided to move its medieval and modern art sections of the Civic Museum to Castelvecchio. The present layout of the building and its exhibitions are the result of a major rehabilitation and construction, between 1956 and 1964, by the architect Carlo Scarpa.
