The Euganean Hills offer us unforgettable treasures such as the sinuous lines of their profile against the sunset, the scent of the vineyards, the red of the earth. But they are also generous when it comes to stone and marble jewels and columns and windows. One of these treasures is Villa dei Vescovi , a noble palace of the '500 in which Alvise Cornaro decided to put all his love for the ancient dogmas of classicism .

One of our Palladian E-bikes is called #Caterina. Caterina Corner has reigned supreme in the hills of Asolo for centuries. But before dressing the town with noble elegance, the Venetian Catherine was sovereign of Cyprus, consort of King James II. Defeated by a series of conspiracies that had long plagued her government, on the occasion of her abdication, she received the Castle of Asolo as a gift from the Serenissima, becoming “domina Aceli”. She could not foresee at that m

Ovid tells her story the Metamorphoses: beautiful, she made the God Apollo fall at her feet, he longed for her attention and love, perhaps deceived by Eros's arrow. But brave Daphne, she refused him. Apollo chased her until the Nymph, exhausted, clamored for the help of Gaea, the Earth Mother, who pityingly transformed her into a Laur

How do we create our itineraries to discover the Palladian lands? It is a fundamental process for us and to which we devote attention and the utmost care. We choose the destination: certainly one of the simplest phases, given the richness of our territory that hosts Palladian villas, or Palladian-style villas, which can be visited, rich in frescoes by admirable artists, with important architectural details, lush gardens and ancient design. We like this very much, and it in

And what would it be like to be a Patrician, a noble and powerful political and economic figure of the Serenissima? Paolo and Francesco Contarini had long wanted a home that reflected their social importance, which above all demonstrated the importance of rural activity for the family. Andrea Palladio was commissioned to transform the ancient castle in Piazzola sul Brenta, in the Padua area, into a solid and eternal country residence, Villa Contarini. It is to Marco Conta
