FAI and its mission
The FAI - the Italian Fund for the Environment - is a non-profit foundation formed in 1975 to protect and keep Italy's world famous artistic and natural treasures vital and productive.
The FAI's daily mission is to safeguard, restore and render accessible to the public historically significant homes and gardens, art collections and natural landmark sites, protecting them from the ravages of time, real estate speculation and neglect.
The FAI emphasizes the history, roots and traditions of the sites, with the intention of informing the
public and making people aware of their cultural origins, the beauty that surrounds them and the wonders of the natural environment.
There are many ways to help the FAI: becoming a member and introducing new members, making
a contribution towards a specific restoration project, visiting the FAI sites that are open to the public, including the FAI in your will or offering your help as a volunteer.
Do something at FAI
A visit, a party, a movie, a dinner, a concert, a show, an exhibit: all this and much more can be arranged in the splendid setting of one of the FAI sites, scattered throughout Italy, and Do something for
the FAI serves as a complete guide, containing the practical information you need to begin to discover
this world.
Villas, castles, monumental gardens, historical landmark homes: each one of the FAI sites is unique, a
fascinating destination for an out-of-the-ordinary excursion, including art, history and nature, all combined in the rediscovery of ancient settlements and locales. But they can also serve as sophisticated and
exclusive settings for a private reception, as backgrounds for historical films or as prestigious locations for business conferences and gala events.

Castello e Chiesa della Manta
Donation of Elisabetta de Rege Provana
Unique thanks to the
splendid frescoes from the
late Gothic period that
decorate its interior walls,
considered among the
most important in all of
Europe, the Castle of
Manta is perched high
above Cuneo, in sight of
the Monviso. Over the
centuries, its owners, the
aristocratic Saluzzo della
Manta family,
transformed this
fascinating medieval
fortress into a handsome
residence.
Though there are several
outstanding halls in its
interior, the Baronial Hall
contains the most
precious treasures: its
walls are entirely covered
by frescoes with nonreligious themes, dating
back to the first decades
of the 1400s. Another
striking room is the Hall
of the Grotesque, a
prestigious apartment
originally built in 1560
and decorated in the
Mannerist style: paintings
and stuccoes representing
allegories, grotesqueries,
classical ruins and
Renaissance architecture.
The castle chapel is a little
jewel as well, with its
interiors reflecting the
same artistic styles used to
decorate the main
building.

Do something
at FAI
Because its spaces are
clustered closely together,
internally and externally,
the Castle is the perfect
setting for receptions,
parties, concerts and film
sets (some scenes from the
TV serial, Virginia, the nun
from Monza, with
Giovanna Mezzogiorno,
were shot here).
Ceremonies are frequently
celebrated in the Castle
chapel, and the kitchens
are the perfect place to
hold a wine tasting or to
promote local foods. In
fact, their rustic elegance
reflects the culinary
tradition of a land
renowned for its enological
and gastronomic products.

Castello di Masino
Purchased from Luigi Valperga di Masino
A fairy-tale castle,
inhabited by King
Arduino and later by the
House of Savoy, the Castle
of Masino is immersed in
an immense romantic park
with a splendid panorama
of the Canavese plain. The
family seat of the Counts
of Valperga for a thousand
years, it tells the story of
the Piedmont and of Italy
in more than thirty
monumental halls:
decorated with frescoes
and luxuriously appointed,
they include rooms for
Ambassadors, private
parlors and apartments
reserved for the Queen
mother: Maria Giovanna
Battista di Savoia was, in
fact, a frequent guest in
this splendid residence.
Among the most striking
rooms, the ballroom
stands out, with its huge
windows that create a
perfect equilibrium
between the outside and
the frescoed interiors,
depicting Arcadian
landscapes of the
seventeen hundreds. Of no
Main Events 2006
lesser interest is the
neighboring Palazzo delle
Carrozze (Palace of
Carriages), which contains
an extensive collection of
eighteenth and nineteenth
century carriages. The
park extends to the
southeast and west of the
castle, still tended in the
nineteenth century
"English style".

The Castle of Masino is characterized by a great variety of rooms
and spaces, making it suitable for private events of all kinds:
conferences, business meetings, ceremonies, banquets and
performances. Settings range from the richly appointed, elegant
halls of the Castle to the more austere, but very spacious rooms of
the Carriage House, or the vast green terraces, with their splendid
panoramas. The immense park serves as a suggestive natural
backdrop for the performances and concerts staged in the central
meadow, while the ancient path of the 22 turns and the intricate
maze of hornbeam shrubs are perfect for advertising spots and

Villa Panza and the Panza Collection
Donation of Giuseppe and Rosa Giovanna Panza di Biumo
Surrounded by a
magnificent Italianate
garden, Villa Panza is
known the world over for
its collection of
contemporary American
art. Built halfway through
the eighteenth century
and extended during the
neoclassical period by the
famous architect, Luigi
Canonica, it realized its
full potential thanks to
the efforts of its last
owner, Count Giuseppe
Panza of Biumo. One of
the world's foremost
collectors of modern art
from the 1950s onward,
Panza amassed works of
extraordinary interest in
the villa, exhibiting them
with care in the
eighteenth century halls,
in harmony with the
precious decor and
important collections of
African and preColombian art.
The Villa is ringed by a
vast park of more than
33,000 square meters,
providing a green lookout
point on the city and the
nearby Alps. The original
geometric "Italian style"
layout was softened
according to the "Englich
model", including vast
green lawns, a small pond
and grottoes hidden by
luxuriant vegetation.

Art, design and fashion
shows find their ideal
setting here, in the
stables of Villa Panza,
which Count Panza had
restructured to contain
works from his
collection. In fact, the
contrast between classical
and contemporary art
underscores the ancient
magnificence of the
entire edifice, an ideal
setting for gala events.
President Ciampi and

European statesmen, as

of the world of fashion,

Donation of Eredi Bozzolo
Immersed in a dream
garden full of fountains,
flowers and inebriating
scents, Villa Bozzolo was
built in the sixteenth
century as a country
house, only to become,
two centuries later, a
prestigious manor. In
fact, the walls, doors and
vaulted ceilings of the
halls were decorated with
Rococo trompe l'oeil
frescoes: flowers,
garlands and blue skies
abounding with Cupids,
panoramic landscapes
that still strike the viewer
today, transporting him
into a spectacular
imaginary setting. But
what makes this place
unique is the splendid
Baroque park that covers
the entire hillside,
known as the
“Belvedere” because of
the extraordinary view
from its summit. Starting
from the parterre, one
climbs up the imposing
terraced staircase to the
"Theater", a vast green
space enclosed by an
eighteenth century
fountain, which bursts
into bloom between
February and March,
when 500,000 crocus
bulbs usher in the spring
each year, providing the
public with a startling
natural spectacle.

Villa
gsxgadel Balbianello
Legacy of Guido Monzino
Long considered one of
the loveliest and most
romantic villas on Lake
Como, Balbianello is
perched on a charming
promontory in the
middle of the lake. A
steep staircase leads up
from the small marina,
which for centuries
served as the main
access, to the loggia, on
the peak of the
promontory, which
commands an
incomparable view of the
lake. The interior of the
villa is furnished with
precious items from the
eighteenth century
(when the villa was built)
and a small museum
containing heirlooms
and documents referring
to the expeditions of its
last owner, the intrepid
explorer Guido
Monzino. But the crown
jewel of Balbianello is
the panoramic terraced
garden, a unique creation
designed to enhance the
lake, its coastline and the
fascination of its waters.

production houses have
selected the Villa and its
magnificent gardens as
the setting for

feature films alike. Not
only have many stars
worked on the premises,
but George Clooney and
Brad Pitt are neighbors.
It was Balbianello that
provided Lucas with the
perfect scenario for the
planet of Naboo, in the
second film of the Star
Wars saga, and the
sophisticated and
exclusive atmosphere of
its locales has lent
refinement to various
television advertising
campaigns, most recently
for Mon Chéri (Ferrero)
and Golf Plus
(Volkswagen). The
intimate elegance of its
interiors is perfect not
only for fashion shoots,
such as the ones done
there by Vogue, but also
for exclusive receptions.

Monastero di Torba
Gornate Olona, Varese
Donation of Giulia Maria Mozzoni Crespi
Immersed in the lush green
woods of the Varesotto, at
the foot of the Castelseprio
archeological park, the
Torba Monastery has been
witness to over a thousand
years of history. A military
outpost in the waning days
of the Roman Empire, it
was passed first to the Goths
and then to the Longobards
(the tower and the walls
date to the fifth and sixth
centuries), before finally
becoming a convent,
devoted to prayer and work
and inhabited by
Benedictine nuns.
Abandoned by the sisters in
1453, it was subsequently
converted to rural farm use.
Among the various
elements that make up the
complex, the tower is an

Castello di Avio
Sabbionara d’Avio, Trento
Donation of Emanuela Di Castelbarco Pindemonte Rezzonico
One of the most
suggestive castles of the
Trento region, the Castle
of Avio has been home
to illustrious personages
over the centuries, like
Autari, King of the
Longobards, and his
consort Teodolinda, or
the Emperors Carlo V
and Maximilian of
Hapsburg. Even today,
you can still feel the
atmosphere of medieval
romance when admiring
the restored frescoes in
the Guards' House and
the Mastio, celebrating
the military triumphs of
the Castelbarcos, the
noble family who
originally owned the
property. Because of its
strategic position, it was
used as a defensive
outpost in ancient times.
In fact, the keep
stretches out along the
slope of one of the hills
that surround
Sabbionara, overlooking
the lower reaches of the
Val Lagarina, with the
Monte Baldo heights
protecting it from the
rear.

Donation of Frank and Orietta Pogson Doria Pamphilj
The crown jewel of an
ancient seaside settlement,
still miraculously intact, the
celebrated Abbey of San
Fruttuoso lies hidden at the
end of a deep bay in the
coast of the Mount
Portofino promontory.
Initially inhabited by
Benedictine monks, then by
humble fishermen, it was
often commandeered by
marauding pirates before it
became the property of the
Doria princes, who held on
to it for centuries. The
Abbey is a truly unique
place, where the hand of
man has worked in perfect
harmony with Nature. The
main tower, which stands
almost on the beach, is all
that remains of the original
structure, dating back to the
tenth-eleventh centuries, and
is one of the oldest
architectural elements in all
of the Liguria region.
The splendid loggia, with
two rows of mullioned
windows that look out over
the beach, providing a
breathtaking panorama of
the bay, was built somewhat
later, in the thirteenth
century. This was chosen as
the location for the
museum, which displays
traces of the Abbey's history
and of the life the monks
used to lead there, including
objects that remind us of
near and distant lands, from
the Mediterranean to the
ancient Islamic world.

intended to protect the

belt. A century later, during
the wars between Como
and Milan, it was damaged
and fell into disuse, but
retained its historical and
symbolic value. Today it is
still a point of reference for
the local populace, who
often gather around the
tower, in the hills
Velate, Varese
surrounding Varese, for all
kinds of local events, of
which the best known is
the "Tower Feast", which is
held each summer. The
park around the Tower can
be used for private
