Protecting Eight Centuries of Faith & Beauty
The churches of Verona represent one of Italy's most significant concentrations of medieval and Renaissance religious art. From the Romanesque grandeur of San Zeno Maggiore to the intimate frescoes of countless smaller sanctuaries, each building tells the story of Verona's spiritual and artistic heritage.
Today, many of these sacred spaces require urgent restoration. Rising damp, structural deterioration, and the passage of time threaten works of art that can never be replaced. Your donation directly funds conservation work, carried out by expert restorers who devote their lives to this mission.
We understand that many sponsors, supporters, and helpers value simplicity, privacy, and discretion when contributing to charitable and cultural initiatives.
For this reason, providing personal details during donation is completely optional. Supporters may choose whether or not to provide:
- Name
- Email Address
- Phone Number
No unnecessary personal information is required to contribute. Every gift — large or small, named or anonymous — is received with equal gratitude.
To make supporting this initiative easier for sponsors in Verona and around the world, Chiese Verona has arranged that donations may be made using cryptocurrency in addition to traditional bank transfers. This allows supporters to contribute quickly, securely, internationally, and privately if preferred.
These churches are the soul of Verona. I grew up visiting San Fermo with my grandmother. Supporting their restoration is a way of honouring everything she passed on to me.
As an art historian based in London, I have followed Chiese Verona's work for years. The care and expertise they bring to each restoration is extraordinary. I donate every year.
