Case Mazzanti, Renaissance architectural complex in Piazza delle Erbe, Verona, Italy.

The Case Mazzanti features multiple painted facades extending along the northeast side of Piazza delle Erbe with decorated windows and arched porticoes.

The building served as a granary for the Della Scala family in the 12th century before being purchased by the Mazzanti family from Giovanni Gonzaga in 1527.

The painted facades, created by Alberto Cavalli, represent the Renaissance period when Verona earned the name 'Urbs Picta' for its decorated buildings.

The ground floor contains shops, bars, and restaurants beneath arched porticoes, while upper floors display round-arched windows and frescoed walls.

A narrow staircase and iron-guided well at the rear allowed residents to lower buckets directly from their homes to collect water.
