Guided tours of Villa Grimani Morosini Gatterburg
Villa Grimani Morosini Gatterburg
Villa Grimani Morosini Gatterburg is a refined noble residence dating back to the 17th century, partially built on pre-existing structures and set within a landscape of great historical and environmental value.
During the guided tour, you can discover the architectural evolution of the villa, the role of the Venetian patrician families who lived there, and the deep connection between art, the local area, and the river landscape.
The works of Thorvaldsen
Inside the villa are the famous “Four Seasons”, also known as the “Ages of Life”, created in plaster by Bertel Thorvaldsen, the leading exponent of European Neoclassical sculpture.
Thorvaldsen, along with Antonio Canova, represents the absolute pinnacle of sculpture between the 18th and 19th centuries. The works preserved in the villa are a rare example of high-level Neoclassical presence in a private Venetian residence, making the visit of particular artistic and cultural interest.
Pairing with the Cervara Natural Oasis
The visit to the villa can be combined with a nature itinerary at the Cervara Oasis, a wetland area of approximately 20 hectares that has remained intact and unaffected by major land reclamation works.
The oasis stretches between the Sile and the Piovega, offering a highly atmospheric environment where you can observe:
- original river ecosystems,
- fauna and flora typical of wetlands,
- a historic mill still visible along the path.
This combination makes the experience ideal for those wishing to combine art, history, and nature in a single guided itinerary.
