This impressive castle built in the 14th century houses a fine art gallery.
This castle is one of the gems in the city of Verona. It is full of wonderful paintings from the medieval period to the 1700s magnificently displayed! You should not miss the following masterpieces: 1. Peter Paul Rubens’ “Portrait of a Lady” made for the Duke of Mantova 2. Pisanello’s “Madonna of the Quail” (this Madonna has the most beautiful face and hair in the history of Italian art!) 3. Mantegna’s “Holy Family.” Of course to see his masterpiece (the Correr altarpiece) you should walk to the nearby Basilica of San Zeno 4. Luca Giordano’s “Diana & Endimione” and “Bacchus e Ariadne” 5. Tiepolo’s “Heliodorus” 6. And finally the monumental equestrian statue of the smiling ruler of Verona Cangrande from 1300s. Some of these paintings were stolen in 2016 then found in Ucraine, and luckily returned intact to the Castelvecchio Museum. The castle also offers great views of the Adige river and the beautiful Scaliger Bridge! The bridge was bombed during WWII but then rebuilt. It is an amazing bridge. Visit the castle and its collection. You won’t regret!

For a very appropriate entrance fee (6e) you see a very well thought out presentation of history and natural habitat. Together with a beautiful view and a pleasant town, this is a great destination to see.

The city walls of Cittadella are a rare example of medieval means of defense with a still practicable, perfectly preserved parapet walk. As a matter of fact it is one of the most beautiful means of defense in Europe.The recent restoration and safeguarding of the ancient Parapet Walk allows visitors to admire the town from favoured viewpoints.
I had seen medieval castles before this one but this was definitely my best experience. Walking the walls of the castle gives you a unique perspective on medieval life. The views of the town within the castle as well as outside the walls is truly spectacular, especially with the mountains in the background. Expect the walk to take about an hour and a half. Cittadella is an excellent day trip for anyone interested in a real functioning medieval town.

A thousand years of emotions, art, history and nature since 1245. San Salvatore Castle is one of the most extensive late medieval complexes in Europe, where you can still breathe the scent of the centuries. It is a very exclusive private home that opens for special events both private and corporate. Extraordinary openings for visits or experiences on reservation.
