Tower sights in Verona

  1. A

    Torre dei Lamberti

    For superb views of Verona, take the lift or your feet up this 84m-high tower, built in stages from the 12th century (with a slight setback in 1403 when lightning knocked its top off). Sporting an octagonal bell tower, its two bells retain their ancient names: 'rengo' once called meetings of the city council, while 'marangona' warned citizens of fire.
