This villa, present and widely described in all the publications concerning the historic houses of Lucca, was built in the seventeenth century in a dominant place the village of Vorno, not far from the destroyed medieval fortress from which the counts of Montezano, as lords of the country, administered this place. It is accessed via cobblestone road built for the passage of the carriages of ancient times. The place is also famous for its beneficial waters and is located in a green valley whose landscape and context create a harmony repeatedly emphasized by several writers and poets. This was one of the territories preferred by the aristocrats who ruled Lucca until the nineteenth century and who built their most beautiful homes here. This villa, with the noble coat of arms of the aristocratic family who built it and who lived there, has a very large scale with a pavilion that leads into a large hall from which you can enjoy a breathtaking view overlooking the city of Lucca and its ancient towers. The rooms show, in part, some frescoes and the nymphaeum, hollowed in the overlying hill, still owned, further qualifies the noble characteristic of the villa. The kitchen on the ground floor, with access to the park and the pool below, is full of testimonies of the era and as in the nymphaeum it makes you enjoy, especially in summer, a cool temperature. The swimming pool, which can be accessed by descending from an ancient stone staircase, has gazebos, is fully equipped and is located in a large park that guarantee peace and privacy.
