Villa Cagnola

Villa Cagnola is an art museum housed in an Italian country estate with paintings, sculptures, ceramics, tapestries, and furnishings spanning different periods. The building itself, designed by Luigi Clerichetti, displays how a wealthy family's home was arranged and decorated.

The estate was designed by Luigi Clerichetti as a private country home and opened to the public as a museum in 1946. This transformation from a family residence to a museum allowed people to see how the wealthy lived in that period.

The collection reflects how wealthy Italian families lived and decorated their homes, with artworks and furnishings chosen to display their taste and status. Walking through the rooms, you see the objects and paintings they surrounded themselves with in daily life.

The site provides parking, a cloakroom, and a cafe for visitors planning a longer visit. Since the museum is located in a rural area, allow enough time for your visit and plan your transportation in advance.

The site sits within 27 hectares of open parkland with centuries-old trees and gardens that visitors can explore freely. Many guests spend as much time outdoors walking among the trees and pathways as they do inside viewing the collection.
