Villa Herriot, Early 20th century villa in Giudecca, Italy.
Villa Herriot consists of a main residence, guest house, covered pier, and servants' quarters surrounded by gardens on the island of Giudecca.
French businesswoman Anne-Marie Heriot purchased the property in 1926 and commissioned architect Raffaele Mainella to design the villa complex, completed in 1929.
The main building now houses the International University of Art, offering specialized courses in art restoration and preservation techniques.
The villa complex accommodates several cultural organizations, including IVESER, which maintains archives related to Venetian resistance movements and contemporary society.
The property includes a Memory Garden project where planted memorials honor significant historical figures and events connected to Venice's past.
