Before crossing Porta Padova in Montagnana a Villa distracts the gaze. Rarely open to the public, this Casa Pisani, to be correct (the Palace was the doge's representation in the city, the Villa had/has barchesse, stables, stables... which are missing here) is set between the mighty walls that do not lower even with a glance, and the traffic is always very heavy. This...House has a lot to talk about. Palladian in all respects, interiors among the most beautiful and rare, furnishings thanks to the last owners who allowed us to peek. To access it, you need to keep your antennas straight...

Villa Pisani was built by Palladio in the mid-16th century. Pisani was a wealthy Venetian nobleman who wanted to create not only a villa for his holiday but also for the agricultural activities of his surrounding possessions. The villa was built next to the castle of San Zeno and establishes the testimony of the power and style of the Serenissima which is opposed to the ancient and fascinating medieval city walls erected by the Cararresi. What you see in the photo is the back of the villa very close to the castle moat because the very beautiful frontispiece which bears a description by Francesco Pisani overlooks a very busy intersection with traffic lights on S.R 10 (lower Padua), a very long ancient road (it is the old via napoleonica) which even reaches as far as Turin.

The exterior is very interesting and looks uninhabited, even though it isn't. He would need interventions. Located at an intersection with traffic lights, it is highly polluted by exhaust fumes. 2 steps from Porta Padova.

Palladio's only permanently inhabited villa entirely furnished with furniture from the 1800s, the visit is made even more interesting thanks to the owner's exquisite hospitality and his precious historical-artistic insights. Unmissable stage in Montagnana.
