THE HISTORY OF VILLA FRISIANI MEREGHETTI
Villa Frisiani Mereghetti, built in 1652 at the behest of Gottardo Frisiani, a member of one of the most important local patrician families, was designed by architect Francesco Maria Richini, famous for works such as the extension of the Ospedale Maggiore in Milan, the courtyard of the Brera Academy and the Church of San Giuseppe. The property for sale is part of a pre-existing 15th-century building that was later merged with the villa. Interior decorations include wooden coffered ceilings and elegant original doors. Frescoes, executed in 1656 by brothers Giovanni Stefano and Giuseppe Montalto, decorate some of the rooms in the wing and depict scenes typical of Lombard noble residences of the 17th century. A historical curiosity concerns one of the rooms in the wing, which, according to numerous sources, is said to have housed St. Charles Borromeo.
