In the 70's the artist Piero Dorazio, the father of Italian Abstraction made the ancient monastery his permanent home. Many people of high artistic and cultural depth were entertained at the Villa.

The estate is surrounded by 15 acres of land; in which you can find olive groves, vineyards, fruit trees, vegtable gardens and also truffles.
The estate underwent restoration in the 70's; preserving the original historical features. Inside the monastery you can find frescos, vaulted ceilings, arches, loggias, and gardens.
