Villa Morillon, Manor house complex in Wabern bei Bern, Switzerland

Villa Morillon consists of a main manor house, stables, sheds, and a dovecote spread across landscaped grounds near Bern.

The estate dates back to 1732 when Rudolf Emanuel Frisching purchased the land and constructed the initial three-wing complex with a court of honor.

The property holds the highest level of cultural protection in Switzerland, reflecting the architectural traditions of Swiss patrician families.

The renovated villa now houses offices and hosts cultural events, including concerts, exhibitions, and lectures open to the public.

The manor's 1832 reconstruction drew direct inspiration from Andrea Palladio's Villa Rotonda, adapting Italian architectural elements to Swiss standards.
