Once Upon a Time in Villa Panza

The story of a house

Saturday, December 27th will see the final installment of ''I'll Tell You About Villa Panza,'' a series of special guided tours designed to accompany visitors in discovering the history of Villa Panza, encompassing ancient and contemporary art, design, nature, and architecture.

''Once Upon a Time in Villa Panza'' is a guided tour that retraces, like a journey through time, the history of Villa Panza in Varese and the families who lived there.
Through historical images and the description of the rooms over the centuries, we will explore the Villa in the footsteps of the Orrigoni family, learn about the history of Marquis Menafoglio and his brilliant intuitions, and relive the splendor, balls, and banquets of the Litta era.

Finally, you will discover how the Panza family transformed and lived in the different parts of the Villa and how Giuseppe Panza made 'the house of Biumo' the place that today hosts one of the most famous contemporary art collections in the world.
