Must-See Art Museum in Verona: Achille Forti Modern Art Gallery / Galleria d’Arte Moderna Achille Forti

Why the Achille Forti Modern Art Gallery in Palazzo della Ragione is my favourite art museum in Verona: location, opening hours, Verona Card entry and FAQ.

Achille Forti Modern Art Gallery / Galleria d'Arte Moderna Achille Forti

My favourite art museum in Verona, among the ones I’ve visited, is Galleria d’Arte Moderna Achille Forti. Situated inside stunning Palazzo della Ragione, the entrance to the first-floor entrance of Achille Forti Modern Art Gallery is located in the south-east corner of Piazza dei Signori and can be reached from Piazza Erbe passing under the arch of Via della Costa. The entrance is close to the Ticket Office of Torre dei Lamberti.

As I wasn’t sure if taking pictures is allowed, even though other people were literally filming/picturing everything, I chose to not take any and to intensify my experience. All the pictures below are from the public areas or outside the Achille Forti Modern Art Gallery in Verona.
