Villa da PortoPhoto: http://www.tviweb.it/notizie-vicenza/tv-vicenza/up
Monument complex, once among the most lavish villas of the Vicenza region.
Monument complex, once one of the most lavish villas in the Vicenza area. The building is the result of various phases of renovation, expansion, and reconstruction carried out from the second half of the 15th century to the early 18th century.
For about thirteen years, Villa Da Porto was inhabited by Luigi Da Porto, a poet and soldier who, disfigured and crippled after the bloody battle with the Landsknechts in Friuli, chose to retreat to Montorso. Here, in an ancient building, around which the grand Villa developed in later periods, he wrote, in 1524, the famous novella Juliet and Romeo. This celebrated love story inspired Shakespeare to such an extent that he chose it as the plot for one of his tragedies.
