Arconati Villa is one of the “Ville di delizia” (Delightful Villas) which once typified the area around Milan. It is located in the municipality of Bollate, at Castellazzo. Built in the 1600’s around a pre-existing nucleus by architect Giovanni Ruggeri, it is made up of three main parts: the villa, the garden and the hamlet which have remained almost unaltered over the years.
