On our way along the western shore of Lake Garda, we reach Padenghe sul Garda further north, a borough of Brescia, which houses one of the residences on our tour. Not far from the 17th-century Chiesa di Santa Maria church is the Villa Barbieri, built about a century later. This polyangular building has three floors: apart from the ground floor, it also boasts an intermediate storey and an upper floor. The stone facade is beautiful to look at not only because of its colours, but also because of its round arch entrance.
Since the villa is a public building, visits are possible at the times listed on the town website (www.comune.padenghesulgarda.bs.it)*
