Your Itinerary

Villa Trissino Trettenero

Splendid Venetian villa registered as a World Heritage Site since 1994, which belonged to the family of Giangiorgio Trissino, who inspired Palladio (note: time to reach stage and stop) Accessible from the outside

Villa Caldogno

Extraordinary Palladian work commissioned by the great architect by the Caldogno counts (note: time to reach stage and stop)

Villa Da Porto Pedrotti

Monumental and splendid, its attribution to Palladio is controversial, but certain is its belonging to that Golden Age of Vicenza which dotted the city and its countryside with architectural pearls recognized as a World Heritage Site (note: time to reach stage and stop) Accessible from the outside

Villa Da Porto Casarotto

Imposing eighteenth-century villa that testifies to the longevity of the Palladian legacy, the living and germinating force of the Italian Neoclassical (note: time to reach stage and stop).

Villa Valmarana Bressan

Unmistakable Palladian original among the first works of the architect, also included in the UNESCO World Heritage (note: time to reach stage and stop). Accessible from the outside

Villa Thiene, Valmarana - World Heritage Site

Another pearl between Giulio Romano and Palladio (note: time to reach stage and stop). Accessible from the outside

Villa Tacchi di Quinto

Even the two Villas of Quinto, the sixteenth-century Villa Thiene and the eighteenth-century Villa Tacchi, dialogue in the suburban landscape, giving us a precious testimony of how Palladio's legacy has been able to survive strongly in the Vicenza countryside, continuing over the centuries to contribute in painting the face of the territory (note: time to reach stage and stop). Accessible from the outside

Villa Ghislanzoni Curti

A UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1994, the villa owned by the Curti family is a fine example of the eternity of the works of Palladian production, inspiration and legacy. Restored to its former glory, it now houses an agricultural and tourist activity as it did then (note: time to reach stage and stop). Accessible from the outside

Villa Gazzotti Grimani - World Heritage Site

Villa Gazzotti is a Venetian villa located in Vicenza in the Bertesina area designed by Andrea Palladio between 1542 and 1543. Subjected over time to various tampering related to agricultural use and uninhabited for years, this work appears to be in a state of deterioration and needs an overall restoration (note: time to reach stage and stop).
