One of the surviving towers of the Palazzo della Ragione or the Comune is the only private tower in Verona, erected by the Lamberti family (of which practically nothing is known) in 1172, in tuff and terracotta.

In 1448-64 restoration works were carried out and a further raising of the building, which reached the current 84 meters. At the end of the 18th century a large clock was applied to it.

In 1295 two bells were placed: the Marangona sounded the time of the end of the work for the artisans and gave the alarm in case of fires, while the Rengo rallied the city council called the citizens to arms in case of danger to the city.
From the top of the tower (accessible by stairs and by elevator) you can enjoy a spectacular view of the historic city center.
