Built in the early 1500s, this Villa was commissioned by Cardinal Silvio Passerini as a hunting manor.
The Villa is situated in a beautiful private park of ancient Italian oak and linden trees and is surrounded by lush green hills where the Cardinal and his entourage hunted pheasants and wild boar.
