Villa Litta Modignani, 17th-century rural palace and urban park in northern Milan, Italy.

Villa Litta Modignani extends across 76,400 square meters of land, featuring green spaces, walking paths, and varied natural landscapes within its boundaries.

Pietro Paolo Corbella constructed the villa in 1687, marking the beginning of its existence as a noble residence before transforming into a public space in 1927.

During the 1850s, the villa functioned as a meeting point for writers and artists, including Alessandro Manzoni and Francesco Hayez, under Trivulzio family patronage.

The park maintains regular opening hours throughout the year and connects to Milan's public transportation system through several nearby bus and tram stations.

Giuseppe Nuvolone's fresco depicting the Life of Diana adorns the stairwell, while Rosa da Tivoli's landscape paintings decorate the interior salons.
