Church of St. Anastasia in Verona + survey of the historical center of the city

The churches of Verona are beautiful and certainly worth a visit along with the House of Juliet and the ancient Roman Arena.

The largest church in the city bears the amazingly beautiful name of St. Anastasia.

Fairy frescoes, ceiling paintings, stained glass windows make it a true treasury of flowering Gothic.

Above the entrance to the Pellegrini Chapel is a real masterpiece of international Gothic, the fresco “St. George and the Princess”.

Art lovers come to Verona to see it firsthand, because it is one of the few works of the great artist Pisanello that has survived to this day.

The fresco is full of symbols and is associated with ambiguous interpretation of the great historical events that changed the course of world history.

The magnificent altars of the temple amaze the imagination.

The altar of the Fregozo dynasty made of pure Carrara marble and the “golden section” created according to all laws did not leave Giorgio Vasari indifferent.

There is nothing more beautiful than seeing magnificent paintings in their historical context, and not on the walls of museum expositions. You will understand this by considering the Renaissance painting of Girolamo dai Libri, framed as a precious salary, a polychrome carved altar.

A visit to the church is part of a classic sightseeing tour of the city along the route: Grass Square, Juliet House with a balcony, Romeo House, Scaliger Tombs, Signoria Square, the ancient Roman Gate of Borsari, Castelvecchie Castle, the ancient Roman Arch of Gavie, Bra Square and the ancient Roman Arena.
