Villa Valguarnera, 18th-century Sicilian villa in Bagheria, Italy
The Villa Valguarnera features a grand iron gate entrance leading to a long avenue that displays the full extent of the estate design.
Prince Francesco Bonanno commissioned the construction of Villa Valguarnera in 1736, incorporating architectural elements that represent a path from earth to heaven.
The oval hall contains numerous frescoes and paintings that display the portraits of the Alliata family ancestors through multiple generations.
The villa stands on elevated ground called montagnola, providing visitors with extensive views across the Bagheria landscape and the surrounding region.
Giuseppe Tornatore directed a Dolce & Gabbana commercial at the villa, featuring Sophia Loren and music by Ennio Morricone.
