Villa Antona Traversi

Villa Antona Traversi is a neoclassical residence in Meda composed of a main building, entrance structure, interior courtyard, and gardens designed by architect Leopoldo Pollack. The spaces connect together to form a unified complex with distinct functional areas.

The site began as a monastery dedicated to Saint Victor in 830 and served religious purposes for centuries. After the monastery was closed in 1798, the land was converted into a private residence.

The halls inside feature Renaissance frescoes and decorative paintings that reflect the site's former monastic purpose. These artworks remain visible throughout the interior spaces where visitors walk today.

The property is open to visitors with access to multiple interior rooms and a large courtyard that was originally a cloister. The layout allows easy exploration of all areas within the complex.

A chapel space inside preserves original paintings from the 1520s created by artists from the Renaissance period. These rare works display the artistic skill of a creative school that was active at that time.
