Given the sparse vegetation, the towers in the 19th century were visible to the naked eye from the city. They still stand, a short distance apart, on either side of Torricelle Street, Santa Giuliana Street, and Bonuzzo Sant'Anna Street. The first tower (269 m) overlooks the Valpantena to the left of Via Torricelle for those coming from Verona; the second tower (280 m), erected to guard the Avesa valley, is on the right side of Via Santa Giuliana (coming from San Mattia) and is now occupied by various antennas and repeaters; the third tower (301 m) is located further north at the junction of Via Torricelle and Via Bonuzzo Sant'Anna; the fourth tower (312 m) is the northernmost and can be seen to the right as one continues north on Via Bonuzzo Sant'Anna. The second tower is opposite the Santa Giuliana Psychiatric Hospital, which bears the name of a small church built here in 1281 and destroyed in 1872.

The monumental building visible from all over the city became for the Veronese the new Castel San Pietro: it still overlooks the hill today. The ruins of the castle that still subsisted to the north of the building were integrated into the new complex and were reused as a fortified enclosure: a large portion of what remains of the Visconti fortress can be seen on Via Castel San Pietro in the section leading to the forecourt in front of the barracks.
