Palazzo Maffei Casa Museo
About This Museum
Tucked right there on the edge of the bustling Piazza Erbe, Palazzo Maffei has watched over Verona's main market square for centuries. It’s a place where time collapses; you'll turn a corner from a room of pristine Roman marbles and come face-to-face with a vibrant, swirling canvas by Boccioni or de Chirico. The collection feels deeply personal, almost like you're poking through the grand home of a remarkably eclectic and art-obsessed family. Stepping out onto that magnificent rooftop loggia, with the city's terracotta tiles and ancient monuments laid out before you, is an experience you won't soon forget.
Collection Highlights
Look for the dramatic 'Head of Zeus' that seems to hold centuries of stories in its stone gaze, then contrast it with the fractured energy of Umberto Boccioni's early 20th-century masterpiece 'Materia'. The juxtaposition is thrilling.
