HISTORY<\/strong> OF NEGRAR<\/strong><\/strong><\/h3>\n

Inhabited by humans since prehistoric times in Negrar is an abundance of castles dating from the Paleolithic archaeological traces have been found of the Bronze Age. In Roman times Negrar belonged to the people of Arusnati<\/em>, the population consists of the fusion of many peoples. The municipal area around the year 1000 formed a rural lordship with the presence of castles. Stability led to an increase in population and the emergence of several rural communities that remained in existence until 1927, then in 1929 there was a restructuring of municipalities, to a greater extent in Lessinia and belt surrounding the city of Verona. In 1238 Negrar is the principal municipality of the valley, but it is also a year of instability, which led to civil war in the Verona area. With the arrival of the Scaliger family in the fourteenth century these wars came to an end and Negrar became part of the jurisdiction of Valpolicella. Negrar had a significant population growth by the year 1000, but an outbreak of plague hit it hard twice, one in 1575 and one in 1630. In 1791, under the government of the Serenissima, in Negrar begins the weekly market and cattle in remembrance of the time there is a column with the winged lion, symbol of Venice. After the war, in the municipality Negrar<\/strong> is constructed Sacro Cuore Hospital<\/em>, run by the religious Don Calabria where is a department specialized in tropical diseases, the main Italian landmark.<\/p>\n
