Discover Villorba: Villas, Art and Regional Culture

Villorba combines historic villas, contemporary art, public cultural life and regional culinary experiences. This creates a destination for you that brings together a range of interests without being limited to a single attraction. The spectrum extends from buildings with preserved and modified sections to museums in the vicinity of Lancenigo-Villorba and scenic destinations in the wider region.

Historic Villas and New Art

Villa Filanda Antonini is a 19th-century mansion and is now home to the Arper Feltrin Foundation and its artist residency programme. Villa Fanna offers a different historical accent: the building dates from the 18th century, has an original rear section that has been preserved and was later extended. The façade has been redesigned. Together, these two examples bring different historical layers directly into focus.

The Villa Giovannina complex is set in a park of more than 14,000 m² with centuries-old trees. It has been used for performances and summer events. Since December 2018, the entire first floor of the same Barchessa di Villa Giovannina has housed the Biblioteca Comunale di Villorba. Historical architecture and public use are therefore linked here in a tangible spatial context.

Library and Cultural Encounters

The Biblioteca Comunale di Villorba organises activities to promote reading among children and adults, public meetings and conferences. This is particularly interesting if you would like to experience culture not only through buildings, but also through events and communal spaces. The former silk-spinning mill in Lancenigo was founded by the Antonini family in 1870 and is now a space for artistic and transdisciplinary experimentation.

Museums in the Surrounding Area

The museum landscape in the vicinity of Lancenigo-Villorba includes Chiave di volta snc. The Musei Civici di Treviso museum and the Casa dei Carraresi museum are also located in the Lancenigo-Villorba area. The Palazzo dei Trecento palace is likewise situated nearby. These destinations broaden the cultural perspective beyond Villorba’s villas and give your planning several historical and museum-focused highlights.
