Villa Gorgo
The residence
This splendid Venetian villa dating back to 1755 is characterized by a harmonious eighteenthcentury setting surrounded by the allure of a glorious bygone age. Enclosed by elegant porticos on both sides, Villa Gorgo faces the garden and opens to the enchanting park behind it, the bell tower and church of St. Andrea with its square. The Great Stable, the gem of the village due to its architectural and artistic significance with rare frescoes on the façade, expresses the perfect union between past and present.

This unique place rich in history and full of endless charm is a dynamic venue that is ideal for various uses.
