A Renaissance Garden in Verona

,

Memories of Summer

A Renaissance garden and a 16th Century palace.  What’s not to love?

With the growth in popularity of the ‘Grand Tour’ Giardino Giusti became an obligatory stopping off point for travellers visiting Verona, including poets, artists, and crowned heads of Europe.

The garden was thought to be one of the most beautiful renaissance gardens in Europe until it was hit by a storm in 2020.  It was added to  Europa Nostra’s “7 Most Endangered” list of heritage sites at risk.

However, 4 years later, it is well on the way to regaining its former glory.

It is well worth a visit.
