Villa Loredan was originally part of a single property which included the opposite building, from which it is now separated by a wire fence.
It was therefore a villa complex consisting of two symmetrical building blocks, separated by a courtyard and closed all around by a boundary wall, owned by the Venetian patrician Loredan family.
[1] With the election as Doge in 1752, Francesco Loredan decided to intervene on the villa to make it more in keeping with the rank and prestige achieved: between 1754 and 1763 the entire complex was then subjected to a radical reconstruction, implemented by reusing part of the ancient structures of sixteenth-century origin.
[1] Animated by the iron will to complete the intervention, in 2014 the municipal administration participated in a tender from the Veneto Region, proposing the intervention of "Restoration and conservative rehabilitation of Villa Loredan - Completion works", for a total amount of €1,800,000.00, obtaining a loan of €1,000,000.00 from the Veneto Development and Cohesion Fund, falling within the National Strategic Framework financed with EU and national funds.
[1][3] On 2 October 2018, further restoration work began on the walls on the second floor and the external courtyard south of the building, for an amount of €265,000.00, the completion of which was scheduled for January 2019.
[1] A "Restoration and enhancement of the park of Villa Loredan" is also planned, for a total amount of €250,000.00 aimed at the recovery and enhancement of the public park of the Villa, in particular the stone portals with the statues above and of wrought iron gates, as well as part of the surrounding walls, which will make it possible to return to the community a historical-artistic heritage of inestimable beauty.
