VILLA IMBONATI OF CAVALLASCA
Villa Imbonati it was built in Cavallasca between 1656 and 1657 by Calo Antonio Imbonati, a rich businessman, on the occasion of his wedding with the Como Giulia Odescalchi, cousin of the future Pope Innocent XI.
Over time, Villa Imbonati hosted numerous writers and scholars of prominence in the Lombardy and beyond, such as Verri, Beccaria, Parini (and more recently Pirandello).
The most famous was Alessandro Manzoni, who stayed in 1805 and dedicated the famous poem In death of Carlo Imbonati to the latter, at the time owner of the villa and friend of the mother Giulia Beccaria.
Then the Butti and the Belgian baron Bayet followed, at the beginning of the 1800s.
The building presents important cycles of wall paintings, centered on biblical, esoteric and mythological themes, and to enrich the complex a splendid terraced park and two gardens, one in the Italian of the mid-1700s and one in the English of the early 1900s. .
Currently the structure, formerly the Municipality of Cavallasca, houses the Municipal Library.
