Tomba Di Giulietta

the story
Visit the picturesque former Capuchin monastery, the place where the great love of Romeo and Juliet ended, and Juliet's Tomb there. You can even write a letter and leave it in the sarcophagus that lies in a dimly lit crypt.

You can also visit Frescoes Museum 'G.B.Cavalcaselle' and admire the wall paintings detached from old Veronese buildings, and the Church of San Francesco al Corso with interesting works of art from the 16th to the 18th century (both on the same ground).

The picture's showing the most important scenes from Shakespeare's tragedy 'Romeo and Juliet'. 

Directions: Go down Via Pallone towards the Ponte Aleardi, turn right at Via Pontiere, go down that street and Juliet's Tomb, the Church and the Museum are on the left.
