The salt warehouse<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

There Salaro Tower<\/strong> It is located on the corner of Piazza Mantegna and Piazza Erbe, next to the Casa del Mercante. It was built by the powerful and wealthy Poltroni family before being banished in 1213 following continuous and bloody clashes with other families in the city. The properties of the exiled families thus became municipal property, and the towers were demolished because they were symbols of a power that no longer existed. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Later, the Municipality used what remains of the tower as a salt warehouse, hence its current name. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

We do not know how long it was used for this purpose, but in the collective memory it never loses its name. In the maps of the seventeenth century the indication of Salt Tower<\/em> or of Public Salary<\/em> and still in the twentieth century we find the Osteria del Salaro underneath it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
