The classical age

Verona at the time of Rome

Verona’s Roman heritage is an integral part of the city; it is perhaps the best-known legacy in Italy and abroad, and it is an integral part of the city as it exists today.
This Roman heritage is reflected in historical landmarks that allow you to discover an ancient and authentic urban landscape, shaped by the people and their stories.

Roman Verona is, in fact, a journey that begins with the Arch of the Gavi – a monument honoring one of the most prominent families of the time – and winds along the historic Via Postumia. Indeed, Verona itself, with its grid-like street layout, stands as a vivid testament to the classical era, with its checkerboard pattern clearly defining the city’s Roman heritage.

An experience and a discovery that can be seen in the city’s most famous monuments, but also in its ancient walls, architectural decorations, and, of course, in the open-air archaeological sites throughout the city.
