<\/span>Built in<\/span> 1883 <\/b>at the behest of Count Guglielmo Claricini Dornpacher, this structure was designed to protect the lemon trees during the rigours of winter. <\/span>
<\/span>The <\/span>tradition of lemon houses<\/b>, which has its roots in historic European villas, spread mainly in Italy, France and England, where these structures were essential for the cultivation and protection of delicate plants, such as lemons, which need an environment sheltered from the cold. <\/span>
<\/span>In the Venetian villas in particular, the lemon house became a symbol of refinement, a greenhouse intended not only for protection but also for ornamental beauty, combining aesthetics and functionality.<\/span><\/p>\n
<\/span>Inside, lemons are kept in large<\/span> terracotta vases <\/b> decorated with the coat of arms of the family. During the warmer seasons, these vases are elegantly arranged along the edges of the main road of the Italian garden, adding a touch of colour and vitality to the entire green space. <\/span><\/p>\n
<\/span>Even today, the structure retains its practical role, contributing to the charm of the garden and reflecting the attention to detail that has always characterised the care for greenery in this villa.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
