October at Giardino di Pojega: Between History and Beauty, one Last Glimpse Before the Winter Rest
On October 19th and 20th, Villa Rizzardi and Giardino di Pojega at will participate at the Giornata delle Ville Venete, offering an unmissable opportunity to immerse yourself in the charm of one of the last examples of Italian garden created in Veneto.
With the arrival of autumn, this will be one of the last chances to explore the garden, which is preparing for its winter break, showcasing its renewed splendor after recent restorations.
Why you should participate
Designed by landscape architect Luigi Trezza in the late 18th century, Giardino di Pojega is a jewel of green architecture and represents one of the last major Venetian creations organized in the formal Italian style, with some concessions to the "picturesque" taste imposed by new Romantic movements, making it unique.
Experiences that You Can Live
On the occasion of the Giornate delle Ville Venete, we offer two immersive visiting experiences, allowing visitors to enjoy a tailored experience among nature, art, and culture.
