Description
The magnificent 16th-century palace, located near the village of Togliano in Torreano, represents a unique blend of history and architecture. Built on the foundations of an ancient castle, this palace still retains the original tower and the base of the bastion, testifying to its glorious past. Its strategic position atop a hill, surrounded by a large garden, offers panoramic views and is just a short distance from the medieval village.
Situated in the heart of Friuli, in northeastern Italy, the palace is close to Cividale del Friuli, a historic city recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Its proximity to major cultural and tourist centers such as Venice (140 km), Trieste (40 km), and Udine (18 km) makes this property an exceptional combination of tranquility and accessibility.
The main building, consisting of the tower and a villa spread over two floors plus an attic, sits on a plot of approximately 5,000 square meters. Inside the palace, the entrance hall and various side rooms are adorned with beautiful Renaissance frescoes. The square-based tower features elements typical of medieval architecture, including single windows, arrow slits, and elegant triforium arches at the top.
Fully restored after the earthquake in 1976, the property has been made earthquake-resistant, ensuring maximum safety without compromising its historical charm. The palace is also cataloged by the Regional Institute of Venetian Villas, confirming its historical and architectural value.
