Villa Magnani Park
A 19th‑century park that awakens in summer: a place where history, nature, and quietude invite you to slow down.
Frazione Magnani, Campiglia Cervo (BI)
History
A 19th‑century residence lived in year‑round by its owners, Villa Magnani opens its park only in summer, gently revealing the only garden in the Biellese designed by the Roda brothers, Marcellino and Giuseppe, gardeners to the House of Savoy. It is a rare and protected place, accessible to visitors only at select times and in small groups, and discovered through guided tours.
An invitation to step into another time, where beauty breathes again.
