Explore → Get Early AccessEighty-four meters over the rooftops — take the lift or earn it by stairs, and Verona arranges itself below: the Arena's oval, the Adige's bend, the Alps on good days. The bells still mark the city's hours as they have for centuries.
Begun in 1172 and raised repeatedly as tower one-upmanship demanded, the Lamberti got its marble octagon and great bells over three centuries — the 'Rengo' called councils, the 'Marangona' told workers when to stop.
Lightning sheared the top off in 1403; rebuilding took up the next 45 years and left the visible seam between brick below and stone above — the tower wears its scar like the city's timeline.
