Castelvecchio, the city fortress

The principal monument to the medieval civic architecture in the town was built by Cangrande II della Scala in the mid-fourteenth century. The medieval walls of Verona encompassed this imposing construction and continued to the spectacular fortified bridge. The perimeter of Castelvecchio stands on six covered towers and is overshadowed by the highest tower of the keep. The walls of Verona are mentioned by Shakespeare, who set the love story between Romeo and Juliet in this town.
