A LITTLE HISTORY OF LAZISE: is an Italian municipality in the province of Verona, located on the eastern shore of Lake Garda. This geographical location gives it a position of great landscape value, but there are also elements of great architectural value and of considerable historical importance. In addition to these peculiarities, Lazise can count on the presence of a thermal spring in Colà, of Canevaworld and Gardalande amusement parks, an extensive hilly agricultural landscape. The most imposing building in Lazise is the Scaligero castle and the walls surrounding the historic center. The castle was built during the domination of the lords of Verona Bartolomeo II and Antonio della Scala, or perhaps a little earlier by his father Cansignorio della Scala (since the New door bears the date 21 May 1376) [34]. The country has always had three entrance doors equipped with shutters and drawbridges:
Porta Superiore, now commonly called Porta San Zeno, for access from the east;
Porta Lion (so called because it bore the emblem of the Serenissima), for access from the south;
Porta Nuova (so called because it was built last), now commonly called Porta Cansignorio, for access from the north.
