Via San Cosimo archaeological area

Beneath the courtyard of the Institute of the Sisters Daughters of Jesus on Via San Cosimo 3 in Verona, this compact excavation site reveals sections of the ancient Roman city wall alongside the foundations of a Roman urban villa. The exposed masonry belongs to the same defensive system as Verona's better-known Roman walls nearby, offering a less-visited vantage point into the same civic infrastructure. The site illustrates the layered continuity of Verona's urban fabric — Roman construction directly beneath a functioning modern religious institution. It is a modest, quiet site with no visitor infrastructure, but valuable for those interested in Roman provincial archaeology.
