Villa Necchi Campiglio In Milano

Wonderful villa. Entering is like stepping into a dream... a tastefully furnished villa full of history and beauty. The outdoor garden and pool truly make you forget you're in the center of Milan amidst the chaos! When I visited, there was even a temporary flower and plant display... and I know they often organize very pleasant events! Everything is very well-kept.

We hadn't bought our tickets in advance, but it would have been better if we had! Tickets to enter the villa were sold out, but the gentleman at the ticket office was extremely kind and let us buy some. The villa is very "Pinterest-worthy," so be prepared for crowds (especially on weekends), but it's a very worthwhile visit!

A very characteristic villa, full of design and art. The gardens are lovely; I visited during the FAI day. I highly recommend it.

Lovely peaceful place in the city

Beautiful, although a bit ahead of its time. The solutions were innovative for the time, but they're still found today. Congratulations to the FAI volunteers, who were extremely knowledgeable and engaging in their stories about the villa.

This villa, owned by a historic family and donated to the FAI, is impeccably maintained. The volunteers who contribute to the audio guide, which can be downloaded to your phone with a code found at the entrance, are well done. The restaurant inside is also noteworthy, offering good quality food.

Truly impressive. The audio guide is helpful, and the FAI volunteers are very helpful.

Beautiful place, quiet and clean. Excellent place to spend a quiet afternoon, perfect for reading, chatting, or even just thinking. An unexpected garden, easily accessible since it's downtown.

A wonderful house museum, passionately described by FAI volunteers. A magical place from a Milan (and perhaps an Italy) that no longer exists.

"Finché tutto splende" (As Long as Everything Shines) is the title of the book that tells the story of the Necchi sisters, and during my trip to Milan, I had the opportunity to visit their home, now part of the FAI heritage. It was a fascinating experience, almost like physically stepping into the pages of the book. The villa is simply spectacular. Built in the 1930s by Piero Portaluppi, an extremely avant-garde architect for the time, it still retains a surprising sense of modernity. Every room exudes elegance, balance, and innovation, as if time had stood still, yet without seeming dated. The visit allows you to better understand the history of the two Necchi sisters, linked to the family foundry, while their brother was the founder of the famous Necchi sewing machine. A blend of entrepreneurship, aesthetic taste, and vision of the future is reflected in every detail of the house. Certain architectural intuitions that were revolutionary for the time are particularly striking: the sliding doors, the bright spaces, the transparent alabaster marble bathrooms, and many solutions that still feel modern and refined today. A truly stunning home, its beauty and ingenuity truly leave you in awe. Beautiful and highly recommended.
