Archaeological area of Corte Sgarzerie

Corte Sgarzerie is a monumental complex located in the heart of the old town of Verona, at a short distance from Corso Porta Borsari and Piazza delle Erbe, consisting of a square by the same name and a late-medieval loggia. Under the square are located the remnants of the Veronese Capitolium. It is a place deeply rooted to wool production, as the toponym itself attests – sgarzarie is a Veronese form of the word scardasserie, places dedicated to the card-making activity.
