Villa Arconati
A Historic Jewel of Culture
One of the Palladium's most treasured cultural projects is Villa Arconati, an architectural masterpiece and historic landmark in Italy. Often referred to as the “Little Versailles of Milan,” Villa Arconati is a magnificent Baroque estate that has been carefully restored and preserved to celebrate its artistic and cultural heritage.
At Villa Arconati, we host a variety of cultural events, including:
• Art Exhibitions showcasing historical and contemporary works.
• Classical and Contemporary Music Performances in the breathtaking halls and gardens.
• Educational Programs and Tours that immerse visitors in the estate's history, architecture, and artistry.
By supporting Villa Arconati, Palladium Group ensures that history, art, and cultural preservation continue to inspire future generations. This iconic site represents our dedication to maintaining cultural legacies while making them accessible to the modern world.
Augusto Rancilio Foundation (FAR)
Preserving Heritage, Inspiring the Future
The Augusto Rancilio Foundation is dedicated to promoting and supporting projects, studies, and research in the fields of Architecture, Design, and Urban Planning. The Foundation particularly focuses on investing in new generations of architects and designers. Established in 1983 in memory of the architect Augusto Rancilio, it is recognized as a legal entity by the Regione Lombardia.
The Foundation's headquarters is located at Villa Arconati, which is one of the most significant examples of Lombard "Pleasure Villas." Situated in the heart of Castellazzo, Villa Arconati is adjacent to the Parco delle Groane and near the new Rho-Pero exhibition center and the Expo 2015 site.
Today, the Foundation is embracing a new challenge by becoming a reference point for the creative and sustainable development of its surroundings. This initiative is supported by its new base at Villa Arconati and its ongoing restoration and development plan.
