Juliet's House, one of the most famous places in the city of Verona and an absolute reference point for lovers of the world, is a medieval palace in Verona, where the Dal Cappello family probably lived since the 13th century. The family gave its name to the street and the emblem is carved into a relief in the keystone of the internal arch of the building's courtyard.

The building, located in the delightful Via Cappello, not far from the central Piazza Erbe, has been the object of many restoration and renovation works over the centuries, passing through the hands of various owners. Meanwhile, the legend and popular belief that identified it as the birthplace of Giulietta Capuleti, protagonist, along with the beloved Romeo Montecchi, of the famous Shakespearean tragedy, and the Verona City Council in 1907 considered it appropriate to acquire at least part of the whole complex of medieval age.

The famous balcony is the result of the assembly of marble remains of the fourteenth century that, until 1920, lay in the Museum of Castelvecchio as stones to be re-used, according to the architectural fashion of the time. The medieval mansion, restored painterly by Antonio Avena at the beginning of the 20th century, it has a beautiful internal facade in exposed brick, a Gothic style portal, three-lobed windows, a balustrade that connects the various bodies of the house from the outside and, of course, the famous balcony. In the courtyard there is a bronze statue of Juliet, made by Nereo Costantini.

In Verona there were actually two families named Montecchi and Capuleti (or, to be exact, Cappelletti) and are also mentioned by Dante in the VI Canto of Purgatory in the Divine Comedy.

Juliet's House is among the most visited places in Verona.
