Villa Toderini was built in the 18th century by the architect Gerolamo Frigimelica, who also designed the famous Villa Pisani di Stra. The villa was the residence of the Toderini De Gajardis counts, Venetian nobles deeply connected to the rural landscape and the architectural culture of the area.
In this evocative context, the poet Ugo Foscolo, a frequent visitor to the Toderini family, found inspiration for the composition of several poems and dedicated two odes to the profession of Maria Toderini Pappafava.
The facade, a complete expression of 18th-century style, is characterized by the family coat of arms at its center and overlooks a wide lawn, enriched by ancient shrubs and hedges that confer uniqueness to the park. The complex is further enhanced by sculptures, a fish pond, and a harmonious landscape design.
Today, Villa Toderini retains the original atmosphere that makes every space particularly evocative, from the chapel to the barns, up to the Italian garden. Currently, the villa hosts an agritourism, combining the preservation of historical heritage with a contemporary hospitality function.
