don't miss...

In 1452 Emperor Federico III was staying in Pesaro, when Alessandro Sforza, who commissioned the villa to be built, invited him to see the site he intended to be his residence. The emperor placed the first stone and from them on, the villa became known as Imperiale. (Imperiale meaning befitting of an emperor.)ย The construction was completed in 1469.

Transportation

Italy has plenty of public transport, from the trains to the metro in cities like Milan. The roads (and Italian drivers) are notoriously terrifying for foreigners so itโ€™s often better to take a taxi than hire a car.

Public Holidays

Each town in Italy has it's own patron saint and shuts down to celebrate the saintโ€™s day each year (e.g. Rome is Sts. Peter and Paul, June 29th). Alongside Christmas and Easter, the other big religious festivals are Epiphany (6th January) and All Saints Day (1st November). All of Italy celebrates Labour Day (1st May) and also Liberation Day (April 25th).

Good Time to Go

Late April - Mid October

good to know

June is recognised as the month of Juno, the Roman Goddess of Marriage.

What Couples Say

“Thanks to you and Villa Imperiale’s staff – you were really great! All the guests complimented us on the location and the wedding. Maybe you already know: you have one of the most beautiful villas in the world. We will always carry you in our hearts.”

Alessandra and Filippo, 2021
