Villa San Remigio is a Lombard baroque style building. It stands at the highest point of the Castagnola promontory in Pallanza, within a large park, bordered to the south by the Romanesque church of San Remigio, and to the north by the gardens of Villa Taranto. The villa dates back to the late 1800s, commissioned by the Irish painter Sophie Browne and the poet and musician Silvio Della Valle di Casanova. The couple inherited from the Irish diplomat Peter Browne, Sophie's grandfather, the entire property on the top of the Castagnola, where between 1903 and 1905, they had a pre-existing Swiss-style chalet transformed and expanded by architect Pompeo Azari into a Lombard baroque style villa. In 1916 the extensive estate inherited was radically changed. The once steep and rocky park was remodeled with large garden terraces. More information...
