HISTORY

The Gallicano estate is centred on the "Villetta", an ancient house that the Pallavicinis bought from the family of Gian Lorenzo Bernini in 1729.

A charming ancient park includes the fountain Bernini himself designed to reflect the Casino dell'Aurora in the hanging garden of the Pallavicini-Rospigliosi Palace in Rome. At the beginning of this century, strange destiny, the fountain was moved to where Bernini had his home.

Outside areas

A furnished park of 10,800 m� with swimming pool and gazebos (6 gazebos totalling 90 m�) beside the house.

In front of the farmhouse, an ancient park with a fountain by Bernini, furnished with garden tables and chairs, totalling 6,000 m�. A 10,800 m� wooded park behind the house. Bowls, wood oven, behind the house.

Inside the house

The "Cantinone" rustic cellar of 50 m� with large fireplace: seating for 50.
