Natura in Villa festival in Veneto

Overview

The ‘Natura in Villa’ festival, organized by the Dimore Amiche del Veneto and supported by the Associazione Dimore Storiche Italiane, provides public access to the parks and gardens of seven historic Venetian villas from October 17 to November 7, 2026.

Initial programming focuses on the relationship between historical architecture and the landscape through botanical walks, workshops, and expert-led activities highlighting biodiversity and conservation. Participating sites include Villa Rosa, Villa Priuli Crisanti, Villa Angarano Bianchi Michiel, Parco Frassanelle, Castello di Thiene, Villa Valmarana ai Nani, and Villa da Schio.

As the festival progresses, specific events include lectures at Parco Frassanelle regarding plant history from the 13th to the 20th century, and tours of the Castello di Thiene featuring its walled park and 16th-century grotto. The festival is scheduled to conclude with a special event at the Castello di Thiene on November 7 and 8, where over 1,500 candles will illuminate the Renaissance-era stables and frescoed rooms.
