Villa Contarini Arquà Petrarca

Villa Contarini is the most imposing building in Arquà Petrarca. It is a medieval palace formerly belonging to the Contarini family and its structure resembles that of the Villa Contarini in Piazzola. This building, influenced by both the distinctive houses of Venice as well as the typical villas of the Veneto region, is low built, but spreads out over a wide area: on the ground floor there is a portico, while on the first floor there are rooms for storing grain mill products and flour.
