Castles & Country Houses, Museums & Art Centres
The Castelvecchio Museum, housed in the mighty mediaeval castle, exhibits collections of Romanesque sculpture, ancient jewellery from the Lombard era, ancient arms and armour and Veronese and Venetian painting from the mediaeval period to the 1700s, with works by Bellini, Tintoretto, Veronese, Longhi, Tiepolo, Guardi, Ricci and Rubens.
The old castle, a symbol of the Della Scala family’s rule, was built between 1354 and 1356. It retained its military function for many centuries, until the 1900s.
