VILLA EMO

FOUR CENTURIES OF ART, HISTORY AND BEAUTY

In FANZOLO Villa del Trevigiano, three miles away from Castelfranco, is the farm

described below belonging to the Magnifico Signor Leonardo Emo.

The Cellars, the granaries, the stables and the other places of the villa are lined up

on either side of the main building and at the end of each of them there is a dovecote

which is useful to  the master and ornamental; to all these places you can go walking

under a covered space, which is one of the main things that you require

in a house in Villa as we mentioned before.

Behind this building there is a square garden measuring

eighty campi Trevigiani; a little river flows across it and it makes the place

even more beautiful and enjoyable.

Paintings by M. Battista Venetiano adorn the Villa.
