In the heart of Veneto lies Villa del Majno. This grand villa whispers tales of a prominent Venetian family, the Marcellos. Their story, intertwined with Villa del Majno, spans over a thousand years. Villa del Majno showcases the classic Venetian villa design. A central hall graces both floors, connecting to adjacent rooms. Originally, the ground floor served as a spacious porch. Two staircases ascended to a stately loggia with high vaulted ceilings. During the 19th century, the villa transformed. The hunting pavilion became a residence. The area between the portico’s columns and the loggia was enclosed. A terrace now connects the two northern structures. New rooms emerged on the second floor. The 18th-century spinning mill stands as a testament to the villa’s rich past. Its facade is captivating. Inside, each of its three floors consists of a single, large room. Large windows on both sides provide ample ventilation, essential for silkworm farming. The portico, once a carriage shelter, was attached to the spinning mill. The earthquake of 1936 severed this connection, leaving them separate. As is typical of Venetian villas, the Tiepolo family dedicated a chapel to Saint Saba. It overlooks the main road, which once traversed the vast meadow. The Corte Rustica, a vibrant garden today, was once the heart of the farm. It’s now a haven of fruit trees and vegetables, surrounded by barns and cellars, and the back of the spinning mill.
