Sightseeing

The Soave castle dates back to the early 10th century and over the centuries passed into the hands of many prominent ruling families, including Scaligeri, who enlarged the castle in the 13th century. The medieval castle’s walls cascade down the hillside and enclose the town centre. Don’t forget to walk to the top of the mastio (the large tower) for the beautiful views of the Monti Lessini. Where today is the castle of Soave, there was almost certainly a Roman watch tower along the Via Postumia, an important road linking the north east of Italy with the north west. The Via Postumia connected Genoa with Aquileia and crossed also many towns in northern Italy such as Verona, Vicenza, Padua. From the highest tower of Soave castle it is still possible to admire a breathtaking view above the plain and the A4 motorway, running along the same route the via Postumia followed more than two thousands years ago.
