Address: Via Trebbiantico 67 - 61100 Pesaro (PU) Italy

Description:
The Cattani family built the Villa at around 1650. This Villa reached its maximum splendor in the early 1700s when the Florentine cardinal, Alemanno Salviati, was sent by the pope to oversee the province of Pesaro and Urbino. From 1717-1732 this villa was the country residence for the Cardinal and his guests. Among the many guests who stayed with the Cardinal at the villa was England's James Stuart III, who came in 1726. This visit was commemorated by engraving his name in Latin above the grand entrance, which included the title king of England that was granted to him by the Catholic Church. With the death of Alessandro Cattani and the marriage of the last Cattani heir Anna-Maria to the Marquis Giovanni Paolucci the notoriety of the villa diminished.
