Location and History

Villa Horti della Fasanara is a place where history, art, and nature intertwine, located at the heart of what was once the hunting reserve of the noble Este family. This residence served as the perfect retreat for rest, entertainment, and the most elegant ceremonies, immersed in an enchanting natural setting that inspired poets and artists of the time.

Described as “the countryside within the Renaissance walls of Ferrara”, Villa Horti della Fasanara is situated in a one-of-a-kind area where nature and urban engineering blend into perfect harmony. This vision was realized between 1493 and 1505 under the guidance of the court architect Biagio Rossetti, commissioned by Duke Ercole I d’Este. His goal was not only to fortify the city against potential Venetian attacks but also to expand the urban scope of Renaissance Ferrara, creating an ideal city where beauty and functionality coexisted seamlessly.
