Even the two Villas of Quinto, the sixteenth-century Villa Thiene and the eighteenth-century Villa Tacchi, dialogue in the suburban landscape, giving us a precious testimony of how Palladio's legacy has been able to survive strongly in the Vicenza countryside, continuing over the centuries to contribute in painting the face of the territory (note: time to reach stage and stop).

Villa Ghislanzoni Curti
A UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1994, the villa owned by the Curti family is a fine example of the eternity of the works of Palladian production, inspiration and legacy.
