Important, in the garden, the only extant private collection epigraphic Latin in Verona, a famous maze of box hedges, one of the rare examples in the Veneto, designed in 1786 on a previous century maze, a beautiful female statue Alessandro Vittoria, in the western section of the parterre, the greenhouses for citrus, against the surviving stretch of city walls of the twelfth century. with statues Bernardino Ridolfi (Falconetto son and close collaborator of the Palladium), which is probably also the mask that overlooks the gardens and artificial cave dug out of tufa stone, with arched entrance framed by columns, entablature and tympanum (which give the appearance of a temple), originally covered with shells, coral and mother of pearl mosaics and with water games.
