Appointment in the garden at Villa Reale di Marlia

Women’s Royal Villa: memories and curiosities

A few kilometers from the historic center of Lucca, discover a unique treasure of Tuscany, where sixteen hectares of park are proposed as a suggestive scenario to spend a day immersed in culture and nature, discovering one of the most important historic houses in Italy.
Relax in the gardens and visit the empire-style apartments of Elisa Bonaparte Baciocchi and the museum of the Palazzina dell'Orologio dedicated to the bizarre collections of Countess Mimì Pecci Blunt.
On the occasion of this day it will also be possible to take part in the second meeting of "Villa Reale al Femminile: memorie e curiosità" scheduled for 10:30 in the Limonaia Nord. Elisa Bonaparte Baciocchi and Mimì Pecci Blunt will be the protagonists of the meeting presented by Simonetta Giurlani Pardini of the Napoleon and Elisa Association in Tuscany, with a focus on their passion and dedication to botany, having both played a fundamental role in the design of the gardens of Villa Reale. At the end of the conference, enjoy a moment of relaxation at the Café overlooking the lake - a complimentary drink thematically linked to the meeting. To complete the day in the open air you just have to enjoy a picnic in the park overlooking the lake.
