What to expect
Villa Valmarana
The Barchessa Valmarana belongs to the rich artistic heritage of the Venetian Villas. Built as a sumptuous aristocratic residence in the 1600s and finely restored by the sculptor Luciano Minguzzi in the second half of the 20th century, Villa Valmarana now includes the sumptuous rooms of the Barchessa and the lush gardens that surround it. Should Villa Valmarana be closed, we will visit Villa Widmann Rezzonico Foscari.

Museo Nazionale di Villa Pisani
Villa Pisani in Stra is a late Baroque Venetian villa located along the Riviera del Brenta, near the city of Stra, a few kilometers from Venice. Villa Pisani is the most impressive, the largest and the most visited villa on the Riviera. It was built on a pre-existing building to celebrate the glory of the Pisani family when Alvise Pisani was elected doge in 1735. After the end of the Serenissima, it was owned of Napoleon, in 1814 the Austrians took over. When Venice joined the Kingdom of Italy in 1866, Vittorio Emanuele II stayed there for a short time and two years later it became the property of the state. Since the late 1800s it has been a National Museum. Countless guests and important visitors from all over Europe: Tsar Alexander I of Russia, Gustavo of Sweden, Maria Luigia of Parma and many others. In 1934 Hitler and Mussolini met there.
