The Gavi Arch

arco dei gavi

-

The Gavi arch. Built to celebrate the wealthy Gavia family in the I century A.D., because of a sign engraved in its stone for centuries was believed to be a work by Vitruvius. It marked the new expansion of Verona outside the city walls in the first century a.D.
Dismantled by Napoleon at the end of the '700, the Gavi Arch was rebuilt using the same stones around 1930 on a side of the old Postumia road.
