Gran Guardia, Palace in Piazza Bra, Verona, Italy.
The palace extends along Piazza Bra with a ground floor featuring thirteen arches and an upper level decorated with paired columns and alternating window pediments.
Construction of the palace started in 1610 under architect Domenico Curtoni, but financial constraints delayed its completion until 1853 when Giuseppe Barbieri finished the project.
The building serves as a central venue for conferences, exhibitions, and cultural events, contributing to the social fabric of Verona's community.
Visitors can contact the palace administration through email at gran.guardia@comune.verona.it or by phone at +39 045 8077650 for information about upcoming events.
Many stones used in the construction of the palace's rusticated ground floor were sourced directly from the nearby Arena of Verona.
