Castle and Village of Izzalini

The Borgo di Izzalini Castle has this name because the ancient fortress on which it was built was occupied by some followers of the Ghibelline Ezzelino da Romano, remembered as the Living Satan, who was Podestà of Verona and son-in-law of Federico II having married his daughter in 1238 Wild.
The Castle overlooks a square square with its tower with bell tower and clock, but the door of the village is located in the back. A crack that allows the passage of a person is present in the facade of the tower and leads into the street inside the village. A particularity that is often overlooked. Inside there is a fountain with fresh water.

It is said that the ancient fortress took its current name from some followers of the Ghibelline tyrant Ezzelino da Romano (1194-1259) Ghibelline, the living Satan, mayor of Verona, son-in-law of Frederick II (in 1238 he married his daughter Selvaggia), who, having driven out the Guelphs, took possession of it, fortifying with walls and towers that locality with about 160 souls which before then was called villa and had the new name of Izzalini.
