Tomba di Giulietta, Medieval museum and shrine in Verona, Italy.
Juliet's Tomb is a museum and shrine in Verona housed within an underground crypt beneath a former convent complex. A red marble sarcophagus sits at the center of this space, while surrounding rooms display paintings, frescoes, and sculptures spanning multiple centuries.
The site originated in 1230 when the San Francesco al Corso church was built and occupied by Franciscan monks. Over the centuries, the location underwent transformation and eventually became a memorial space.
The frescoes and artworks displayed here reflect how local artists expressed religious themes across different periods. Visitors can observe the shifts in style and technique as these works span from medieval times through the Renaissance era.
Access is via a stone staircase descending from the east side of the former convent courtyard. The underground chambers remain open to visitors year-round, with a single ticket providing entry to all areas.
Ancient amphorae from the 1st century are stored in the underground chambers, offering visitors insight into the site's early past as a Roman location. These vessels predate the religious use of the space by many centuries.
