Giardini di Villa Reale

Splendid gardens

This romantic garden with "fake" ruins was planned together with the late neo-classical main villa between 1790 and 1793 by the architect Leopoldo Pollack for Count Barbiano di Belgioioso. Poorly equipped for children's games, the gardens have a small internal lake which is clean and safe, and a summer venue for classical music concerts and selected theatrical operas. The gardens extend over a surface area of 20,000 square metres. Only children accompanied by an adult are admitted entry. Admission is free.
