Torre dei Lamberti
Torre dei Lamberti is Verona's tallest medieval tower, begun in the 12th century by the Lamberti family and expanded over subsequent centuries to its current height of roughly 84 meters. An elevator, alongside a staircase, makes it one of the more accessible tower climbs in Italy compared to stair-only ascents elsewhere.
From the top, an observation platform offers sweeping views over Verona's rooftops, the Adige River, and the surrounding hills, widely considered one of the best views in the city.
Its location on Piazza delle Erbe makes it easy to combine with the rest of Verona's central squares, and the elevator option means the view is accessible to visitors who might otherwise skip a tower climb.
