Verona UNESCO world heritage sites

Gavi Arch at Corso Cavour, 2
During the Middle Ages it was used as a gate in the walls.

Arena at Piazza Bra, 1
The ludi (shows and games) staged there were so famous that spectators came from many other places, often far away, to witness them. The amphitheatre could host more than 30,000 spectators in ancient times.

Borsari Gate at Corso Porta Borsari, 57A
The Via Postumia (which here became the decumanus maximus) passed through the gate, which was the city's main entrance and was therefore richly decorated.

Market Square at Piazza Delle Erbe
The northern side of the square is occupied by the ancient town hall, the Torre dei Lamberti, the Casa dei Giudici ("Judges' Hall") and the frescoed Mazzanti Houses. The western side, the shortest one, features the Baroque Palazzo Maffei, decorated by statues of Greek gods. It is faced by a white marble column, on which is St. Mark's Lion, symbol of the Republic of Venice. The north-western side occupies the site of the ancient Roman Capitol Hill, which looked towards the forum. Numerous of its buildings facing the square have maintained façade frescoes. On the southern side is the crenellated Casa dei Mercanti ("House of the Merchants", also known as Domus Mercatorum), now the seat of the Banca Popolare di Verona. Other buildings, the tall houses of the Ghetto, are reminiscent of medieval tower-houses.

Lords' Square at Piazza dei Signori
With an abundance of building and monuments holding great historical importance, visitors can catch a wealth of Renaissance palazzi (palaces), with the Palazzo degli Scaligeri and Palazzo del Comune to name just a couple. The most iconic building within this Piazza could be considered the Loggia del Consiglio, built in 1476 by Fra Giocondo and featuring a stunning facade with impressive double column windows. But of course, as the square is often nicknamed “Piazza Dante”, the large statue dedicated to the poet Dante Alighieri dominates this piazza and erected in 1865, is a great testament to the city of Verona for offering him hospitality after his exile from Florence.

Juliet's House at Via Cappello, 23
It features the balcony, and in the small courtyard, a bronze statue of Juliet. It is one of the most visited sites in the town. The metal of its chest is worn bare due to a legend that if a person strokes the right breast of the statue, that person will have good fortune and luck in love.

Lions' Gate at Via Leoni, 1
The gate was built during the Roman Republic by P. Valerius, Q. Caecilius, Q. Servilius and P. Cornelius, and restructured in imperial times.

Stone Bridge at Ponte Pietra
The Ponte Pietra (Italian for "Stone Bridge"), once known as the Pons Marmoreus, is a Roman arch bridge crossing the Adige River in Verona, Italy. The bridge was completed in 100 BC, and the Via Postumia from Genoa to Aquileia passed over it.

Roman theatre at Rigaste Redentore, 2
The theatre was built in the late 1st century BC. Before its construction, two walls were built alongside the Adige River, between the Ponte di Pietra and the Ponte Postumio, to protect it against floods.
