2 Lionard Luxury Real Estate Via de Tornabuoni, Florence Italy Tel Veneto Abano Terme Historic Villa Veneto DESCRIPTION Historic villa in the frame of the WildlifePark of the Euganei hills of the Veneto region, typical villa in venetian style dating back to the 15 th century and in the past belonged to a powerful and famous family during the Republic of Venice and lived also by Giacomo Casanova in The mansions for sale consists of various structures for a total space of 14000m2 surrounded by a park, of 70000m2, completely enclosed from walls. The main villa is the building of value from an architectonic viewpoint. The structure is a classic example of Palladio the famous architect from Italy: the architect wanted to realize an ideal of perfection trying to put the villa in a perfect geometric figure. The typical originality of the venetian style is recognizable in many details, for example in the windows with the balustrades and in the two symmetrical entrances with large staircases. A few years ago, a team of famous architects began a project of renovation of the realestate which was suspended but aims to create roughly 70 prestigious apartments, a suggestive restaurant, a meeting room, a hotel-residence with 24 suites, some offices and a SPA. TECHNICAL DETAILS LOCATION Abano Terme rises at the feet of the Colli Euganei and with Montegrotto, Galzignano, Battaglia and Teolo constitutes the most ancient Thermal complex of Europe. The Abano s origins dates back to the prehistoric period: the archaeological

3 excavations led in Montegrotto, in locality Saint Pietro Montagnon, demonstrate that the area was inhabited by populations that knew the curative property of the thermal waters and mud yet. The Imperial Age was a period of splendour, when splendid mosaic villas were built. Later on, in the centuries of Christianity s diffusion, connection between curative virtue of the waters and refined life caused the decline of the city. During the 12 th century we find in the documents news of the city, given, together at eight castles, by the Imperator Ottone II to Ingelfredo de Conti. When he died Abano passed to Manfredo, who left his daughter Cecilia as heir: many nobles found to conquer her hand and lay hold of Abano, stirring up battles that ended when the Padova s Republic imposed its predominance. Padova ordered the reopening of Thermal Baths and to promulgate statutes to discipline the use: the frequency was limited until 1554, when three doctors were appointed to direct the Thermal Bath. A second golden period was the second half of the 18 th centuries, with the building of numerous villas transformed, then, in SPA: to stay in Abano became in fashion for the high society. The world wars didn t spare it: in 1943 hotels were requisitioned and designated to host the German Air Force; next year Abano hosted International Red Cross and finally its structures became barracks for the allied troops. Today in Abano, Astoria and Verdi Hotels offer the necessary structures for cures and an ideal environment for a total relax.
