Villa Molin Avezzù
Fratta Polesine (RO)
Situated in the centre of a small island of land, between the Scortico canal and a minor canal, Villa Loredan Grimani Molin Avezzù-Pignatelli stands next to Palladio's Villa Badoer, closing in on the wonderful view of the historic centre of the town of Fratta Polesine in an elegant combination of architectural, decorative and historical elements.
Villa Molin Avezzù is the result of a combination of different architectural genres inspired by Ferrara, Mantua and Palladio, making the attribution of the project complex and still unknown today.
Its imposing façade, with a Doric colonnade supported by a mighty ashlar plinth and arcades, is inspired by the simple and refined forms of ancient temples.
The rooms on the main floor are distinguished by exquisite fresco decorations, populated by allegorical and mythological scenes dedicated to the themes of love and fertility and adorned with elaborate grotesques.
A place of refined beauty and elegance, an ideal destination for visits, cultural appointments and charming events.
