Description
L'Istituzione Villa Monastero, di proprietà del CNR, è gestita dalla Provincia di Lecco. E' un'attrezzatissimo e moderno Centro Convegni di fama internazionale situato all'interno di una delle più antiche e belle Ville di Varenna sulle sponde del bellissimo Lago di Como. Villa Monastero, ancient monastery and patrician abode, is today an international Congress Centre that offers corporate bodies, associations and institutes the possibility of holding conferences, seminars, courses and workshops in extremely suggestive surroundings. Villa Monastero is one of the most interesting examples of an eclectic style residence on Lake Como; here the interventions from the end of XIX and the beginning of XX century have added functional and decorative elements without damaging the traces of the building's history. The enchantment of the gardens, which extend up to Fiumelatte, and the peace and quiet of the place makes the Villa an ideal environment for high level cultural and scientific meetings. Internationally known literates, historians, artists, scientists, even Nobel Prize winners, have honoured Villa Monastero since 1953 when this prestigious abode became a Congress Centre for high level studies. The Villa is located in Varenna, a picturesque medieval village, rich in artistic monuments on the east coast of Lake Como, and a tourist destination traditionally appreciated also for its stupendous nature and landscape.our International Conference Centre offers to the organisers of meetings, seminars, courses and other cultural activities in an extremely charming environment enhanced also by the luxuriant Botanical Garden.
