Description
Strategically positioned, the villa boasts sweeping views of Monte Cimone, Cengio, Summano, and Priaforà. Its origins lie in a medieval fortress, with the current residence built in 1752 by Count Girolamo di Velo, a member of a wealthy family linked to the silk trade. The estate was expanded under his direction, including structural reinforcements and the addition of a residential floor.
Notably, the villa inspired Antonio Fogazzaro’s 1885 novel "Daniele Cortis". A red marble column mentioned in the story still stands in the garden. The architectural complex comprises three harmonious buildings and exquisite interiors, including frescoes attributed to Pietro Moro. With its rich heritage and stunning landscape, the estate offers unmatched potential as a prestigious private residence or luxury venue.
