Villa Olmo is a neoclassical villa located in the city of Como, northern Italy.
The villa was commissioned by Marquis Innocenzo Odescalchi to Swiss architect Simone Cantoni to have a summer retreat alongside the lake in 1782.
The villa was named after an elm tree, no longer alive today, planted in the middle of the ornate gardens.
The villa was acquired in 1924 by the municipality of Como[1] and today is open to the public only during exhibitions, while the lakeside gardens are freely accessible during the daytime.
