VILLAS IN PO DELTA

Like all Veneto, the Rovigo's Province is rich in Villas. The artistic phenomenon of the Polesine Villas was closely linked to the expansion on the mainland of the Venetian dominion. Confirmation of this can be found in the original names of the main Villas which were commissioned precisely by Venetian patricians. However, this characteristic diminishes and almost disppears as you near the banks of the Po where the Venetian influence gave way to an Emilian influence, particularly that of nearby Ferrara.

Tenuta Castel Venezze is an original Villa in Po Delta and is the oldest building in the area, dating back to 1400. Beautiful antiques and ornaments reflect the elegant style of the 15th centuries. Vacationing in a villa allows you to step out of being a tourist and step into the lifestyle and the culture of the country. Theres nothing else like it!

For reason of a historical and enviromental nature, there are no Gothic or early Renaissance Villas; the oldest among them consequently date back to the 16th Century (Nani Mocenigo at Canda, Schiat at Ficarolo, Badoer and Grimani at Fratta Polesine, Dofin at Lendinara, etc.). More numerous and of remarkable quality are the group of the 17th century Villas (Grassi at Baricetta, Pellegrini at Salvaterra, Roveri at Calto, Oroboni at Fratta Polesine, etc.) and those of the 18th Century (Bellettato, Davã, Dolfin at Fratta Polesine, Menotti at Lama di Gavello, Tiepolo at Albarella, etc.). Furthermore, can be find 19th century examples from the neoclassic era such as Zambelli at Cesenelli, Contarini at Contarina.
