Experience Details

The sweet hillside between Verona and Vicenza is well known for its excellent wines. One of these takes its name from a small village, standing at the feet of an impressive medieval castle: Soave.

Conceived as a defensive hub by the Veronese family Della Scala, which ruled the city for 125 years between the 13th and the 14th century, the two was circled by massive walls, connecting to the fortress, which still dominates the surrounding landscape.

This private guided tour will allow you to discover the timeless beauty of this castle, together with some more outstanding monuments: Piazza Antenna, the Justice Palace and the Palazzo Scaligero; shortly after, you will reach a well known local winery, for complete tasting of five different premium varieties of wine, in the impressive context of the cellar. "Soave" in an Italian word for "sweet": well, at the end of this experience you will perfectly understand why.

What You’ll Experience

The Soave Castle

The impressive fortress, dominating the village of Soave, knew its highest splendor in the 13th century, under the authority of Verones family Della Scala. In 1379, under the same government, the whole town was circled by defensive wall, still visible. After the decline of Della Scala family, the manor was ceased to the Visconti from Milan, then shortly to the CArraresi from Padua and finally to the Republic of Venice. During the 16th century, the castle was awarded by the Republic of the "Antenna", a high pole supporting the flag of St. Mark's lion. Later. the castle went under a period of decay, until the massive restoration of 1890.
