Verona es una ciudad situada en la región de Véneto, en el Norte de Italia. Su nombre nos remite automáticamente a la historia de Romeo y Julieta, escrita por William Shakespeare.
No era la primera vez que el dramaturgo inglés hacía referencia a Verona.
Una de sus primeras obras se titula Los dos hidalgos de Verona (1591-1592) Cuyo tema principal es el debate entre la amistad y el amor. La obra plantea el interrogante si la amistad entre dos amigos es más importante que una relación entre dos amantes. Esta temática es recurrente en la literatura del Renacimiento, ya que consideraban a la amistad por encima de todo, inclusive más que el amor de la pareja, por ser más puro.
“Si tengo que guardarme un objeto tuyo para recordarte, significa que te voy a olvidar”
Frase de Romeo y Julieta – Autor William Shakespeare
A Verona se la conoce como la ciudad de los novios. Quienes visitan la ciudad recorren los lugares que fueron el escenario de la tragedia romántica por excelencia: Romeo y Julieta.
El primer destino turístico es la casa de Julieta, visitada cada año por miles de turistas.
Se trata de “Lo Stallo del Cappello”, una antigua casa torre que se remonta a los años 1200-1300. Según la tradición popular, este fue el hogar de los Capuleto, familia de la heroína de Shakespeare.
En las salas hay una colección de grabados antiguos, que hacen referencia a la historia de los dos amantes. En el lugar también se pueden ver muebles y trajes utilizados en el film de Franco Zeffirelli.
En el patio se encuentra la estatua de bronce de Julieta, obra de Nereo Costantini, convertida hoy en uno de los símbolos de Verona.
Una leyenda señala que si alguien toca el seno derecho de la estatua de bronce encontrará el amor verdadero. Si bien no hay ninguna certeza acerca de su verosimilitud, ningún turista se retira, sin antes cumplir con la tradición.
En un lateral del patio se puede ver el mítico balcón.
Una de las novedades en la ciudad es la posibilidad de casarse en el balcón de Julieta, con los invitados instalados en el patio. Lo organiza el ayuntamiento de la ciudad.
“Es casi ley, que los amores eternos son los más breves”
Frase de Romeo y Julieta – Autor William Shakespeare
De la casa de Julieta, se accede a la de su amado Romeo, que se encuentra en un callejón aislado en el casco antiguo de Verona, próximas a las Tumbas de los Scaligeri. Se trata de un castillo rústico que perteneció a la familia de los Montesco, por esta razón fue atribuido a Romeo.
Otro destino de este tour es la visita a las antiguas murallas medievales que rodean la ciudad scaligera, construidas en la edad de las ciudades-estado italianas.
A lo largo de sus paredes se puede observar la entrada principal en el período en el que se cree que vivieron Romeo y Julieta. Junto a esta antigua entrada hay un busto de William Shakespeare y una placa con los versos de Romeo.
La tumba de Julieta se encuentra en el Convento de San Francisco del Corso, un antiguo monasterio de los frailes capuchinos construido en el siglo XIII. Una vez que se ingresa al mismo hay que dirigirse a través de los sótanos del claustro, para acceder al sepulcro abierto fabricado en mármol rojo.
La ciudad de los enamorados ha sido declarada Patrimonio de la Humanidad. Se recomienda a los visitantes conocer la Plaza delle Erbe, admirada por poetas y pintores, en cuyo centro se levanta la fuente de la Madonna Verona frente al Palacio Maffei; La Arena donde se celebra su célebre festival de ópera, el Ponte Pietra, el Domus Mercatoru, y la Piazza dei Signori, entre otros.
Verona es sin dudas una ciudad que enamora: Sus románticas calles medievales, los sugestivos paisajes, la música y su historia, generan una gran emoción que permanece desafiando a las barreras del tiempo.
