The Villa is splendid testimony of great Italian civil architecture, an exceptionally important monument in the vast realm of Veneto villas, due to its ability to introduce Roman classical architecture on the mainland of the Republic of Venice. Bishops’ Villa was built in the first half of the 1500s and was donated to FAI in 2005.
After five centuries, Bishops’ Villa maintains its original ideal of life, which assigns a moral value to nature and the landscape, able to cultivate the spirit and inspire the mind.
