Villa Gernetto, Lesmo, Neoclassical villa in Lesmo, Italy.

Villa Gernetto extends across 24,000 square meters with 60 bedrooms, an 80-seat cinema, and handcrafted parquet floors from Brianza artisans.

The villa, built in the late 18th century by Simone Cantoni, replaced a 5th-century fortress that protected populations fleeing from Milan during barbarian invasions.

The property features geometrically designed Italian gardens connected by staircases, along with an extensive landscaped park containing rare plant species.

The villa functions as a conference venue and serves as a training facility for the Monza football club, maintaining its role in regional activities.

In 1818, workers discovered 273 ancient Roman gold coins from the late imperial period within the grounds of Villa Gernetto.
