Description
The ancient Villa is located in a strategic position quite high, thus enjoying a wonderful view either on the plan of Alessandria and towards the beautiful hills of Monferrato, as well as reaching the Alps with their magnificent snow-
capped peaks.
The history of the 19th Century is closely linked to the villa as His Majesty
Vittorio Emanuele Il placed his head quarters before facing the Austrians on the Ticino. The chronicles of the time tell that the episode left indelible marks of the meetings and events related to the Savoy Army presence, until the appointment by the King of the Barony of the Pona.
During that time His Majesty stayed in the villa, now partially renewed. In memory of the event there are still a marble plague and some other relics.
