Villa Angarano, Renaissance villa in Bassano del Grappa, Italy.
Villa Angarano is a manor house near the Brenta river designed by one of history's most renowned architects. The building features symmetrical side wings, gardens, and farm structures that spread toward the foothills in the distance.
Construction began in the mid-1500s under one of history's most celebrated architects for the Angarano family. A century later, another master builder completed the central section of the structure.
The name reflects the Angarano family who originally commissioned the estate. Walking through the grounds, visitors notice how the house and surrounding vineyards are deeply connected, with work and tradition visible throughout the day.
Visitors can join guided tours through vineyards, farm courtyards, and historic outbuildings. Tours run year-round, so wearing comfortable shoes and bringing a jacket for changing weather is wise.
The estate has been managed for generations by five sisters from a local family. This arrangement earned it regional recognition as a property uniquely led by women.
