Villa Scheibler, Italian national heritage villa in Quarto Oggiaro district, Milan, Italy.

Villa Scheibler is a historic villa built in the second half of the 15th century and enlarged in the 18th century, in the Vialba area near Quarto Oggiaro, with its main facade at via Orsini 21. One wing holds a church dedicated to Saints Vitale and Agricola, and the park behind is crossed by the buried Pudiga stream. Stables adjoin the complex, which was restored under the Urban II programme.

Villa Scheibler was built in the second half of the 15th century as a hunting estate for Cicco Simonetta, adviser to the Duke of Milan, and hosted figures of the Milanese court including Ludovico il Moro. San Carlo Borromeo stayed there in October 1583 as guest of Alessandro Simonetta. The Simonetta family held it until 1760; it passed to the Ferrario, then the Formenti, and in 1877 to the Scheibler counts, who restored it with Antonio Citterio. Felice Scheibler's niece sold it to the city of Milan in 1979.

The villa takes its name from the Scheibler counts, industrialists from Monschau in Germany who acquired it in 1877 and restored it with the help of marquis Antonio Citterio, adding an English garden and large stables for Felice Scheibler. Since 2024 the municipality has used it for wedding and civil union ceremonies.

The villa is accessible by public transit using Metro Line 3 to Affori Centro station, followed by a short walk or bus ride to the site. Checking opening hours and current exhibitions in advance will help you plan your visit effectively.

A buried passage once linked the villa to Villa Caimi, another historic villa. The park is crossed by the Pudiga stream, a tributary of the Nirone, now covered over. Since 2024 the villa has been used by the city of Milan for wedding and civil union ceremonies.
