San Giovanni Lupatoto has always lived with its river: the Adige draws its border with Verona, and the embankments are the daily walk of the "lupatotini". From a farming village it grew into one of the productive centres of Verona's belt, among paper mills, mechanics and logistics.
The curious name — "lupatoto" — feeds debated etymologies that locals happily recount. Verona is fifteen minutes away: the Arena, Piazza Erbe and Juliet's house can be enjoyed from here without paying its rents.
