Villa Mirabellino, Neoclassical villa in Parco di Monza, Italy

Villa Mirabellino is a neoclassical building in Monza Park with a U-shaped layout where a central two-story structure is flanked by lower wings on either side. Doric columns line the eastern facade, giving the building classical proportions and balance.

Cardinal Angelo Maria Durini had Giulio Galliori build the villa in 1776 to lodge guests of his literary circle, naming it Mirabellino as a smaller dépendance of his Villa Mirabello opposite. In 1805 the French government expropriated both Durini properties for the park of the Villa Reale; Eugène de Beauharnais renovated the interior, added a gazebo and children's games, and gave it to his wife Augusta of Bavaria, who renamed it Villa Augusta.

The name Mirabellino marks it as the smaller annex to Cardinal Angelo Maria Durini's Villa Mirabello, which faces it across the park. Durini used the villa for summer-evening dinners and conversation with guests of his literary circle. In 1805 Eugène de Beauharnais renamed it Villa Augusta for his wife, who stayed there often.

The villa is not unused: after serving as a school it housed a trade-union centre, and a bocce court was built in front of the entrance porch of the courtyard of honour. Visitors reach it on foot through Monza Park, whose paths link it with Villa Mirabello and the Villa Reale. The green metal fence and stone gate pillar stand between the building and the park path.

The two villas face each other across a slope, and Giulio Galliori built the newer one as a mirror of the older: the U-shaped wings point in opposite directions, following the model of Vienna's Upper and Lower Belvedere. The connecting avenue of hornbeams still stands.
