Why go
This record is the museum, not the castle building, which Wikidata keeps as a separate item. Italy's national tourism board says the castle was built by Cangrande II della Scala in 1354 on the right bank of the Adige, became the seat of the Civic Museum in 1926, and was given a new museum layout by the architect Carlo Scarpa, commissioned in 1958. It lists collections including medieval sculpture and works by Pisanello, Bellini, Mantegna and Veronese. Wikidata lists the museum as part of the Musei Civici di Verona network. Opening days, hours and booking are set by the museum and change, so check its site before you go.
