Traveler reviews
Alok Sankhe
★★★★★2 months agoLike most of the churches in Italy, this church is also very beautiful. But the most incredible part of visiting this church was to experience the live performance of huge pipe organ. As a musician my mind was blown to hear this ancient and giant instrument played. The musician who played it was very skilled yet humble. Loved every bit of that performance. My trip to Verona was completely worth it just because of this one divine performance.

★★★★★2 months agoBeautiful church with a lot of history and stunning interiors. I highly recommend buying the combo ticket for the 4 churches since it's 50% chraper than individual entry fees.
