Monselice

you will visit the castle of Monselice with a professional licensed local guide that you will meet when you will arrive on the spot. The castle is a complex of buildings that consist of four main parts. The most ancient one is composed of a late eleventh-century building, while the Little Castle (Castelletto) dates back to the twelfth century. During the thirteenth century the Castle was enlarged with a massive tower and the large rooms in the keep, characterized by “towered” fireplaces, were made in the fourteenth century. Each room was enriched with a precious collection of authentic furniture, paintings, carpets, tapestries, ceramics, instruments, and fabrics in the Gothic and Renaissance style.After the guided visit, you will have a free walking tour along the path that follows the slope of the hill. You will walk through a series of six chapels that accompany the ascent to the area of Villa Duodo.

Garden of Villa Barbarigo

The garden of Villa Barbarigo-Pizzoni Ardemani, known by its place-name Valsanzibio, is one of the most beautiful and most intricate among Venetian baroque gardens. Its design is deceptively simple, arranged around the principal defining axis that was a feature of Italian Baroque garden design. The long axis continues up a cypress avenue, climbing the hill behind the villa. In front, it takes the form of a lengthy tapis vert, punctuated by fountains and enclosed by high beech hedges. A cross axis, running east to west, takes water as its inspiration. A series of pools, fountains and cascades, unique in the Veneto, carry the eye in a prospettiva d'acqua, which rises up gently towards the wooded, green Euganean Hills. This hilly landscape is not terraced, as in Tuscany or Rome, but has been left to become a natural element in the composition. Beside the two main axes, the garden was divided up into compartmentalized squares or rectangles, each with its own character or theme.
