Villa Caldogno is an example of Palladian architecture of productivity, rural industriousness and prestige of the family that settled there in 1565.

But Villa Caldogno hides to the eye of the passerby a priceless treasure given by the rich frescoes inside born from the inventiveness and skillful hand of Giovanni Fasolo, Battista Zelotti and Giulio Carpioni. Among the subjects ranging from mythology to literature, those related to the activities of the villa stand out: entertainment, games, social events, decorate the loggia and the central hall in a triumph of beautiful clothes and chatter of happy companies. Among card games and musicians who cheer the afternoon entertainment with their melodies, there is also room for a snack: two lovers are about to bite into Venetian bussolà, the typical doughnut-shaped sweets.
