Home›Palaces and Aristocratic Residences›Building Type›VillaBrowse ByVillaBuilding type sorts buildings by the specific kind of structure each one is, such as a church, a tower or a house. The Sagrada Familia is described by Wikipedia as "a Catholic church in the Eixample district of Barcelona," a precise type distinct from a palace or a museum. This dimension lets a visitor find every building of one exact kind.FactsVillaSourcesComments (0)Reader Challenges (0)FactsComparisonEra of EmergenceWell-attested2000 BCE 1Origin RegionWell-attestedCrete (Minoan civilization) 1VillaFilter Results88 entriesArchitectAllAndrea Palladio (1)Building FamilyAllPalaces of Central Italy (36)Palaces of Eastern Europe and Russia (2)Palaces of Italy (66)Palaces of Northern Italy (23)Palaces of South and East Asia (2)Palaces of Southern Italy (4)Palaces of the Italian Islands (3)Palaces of the United Kingdom and Ireland (2)Palaces of Western Europe (16)StyleAllArchitectural Eclecticism (1)Baroque Architecture (9)Chinese Architecture (1)Louis XV style (1)Mannerism (2)Moorish Revival Architecture (1)Neoclassical Architecture (7)Palladian Architecture (1)Renaissance Architecture (18)Renaissance Revival architecture (1)Rococo Architecture (1)MaterialAllBrick (1)Dome (1)Limestone (2)Stone (1)Completed YearAll1417 (1)1450 (1)1500 (1)1510 (1)1542 (1)1546 (1)1550 (2)1551 (1)1558 (1)1560 (2)1565 (1)1567 (1)1578 (1)1582 (1)1592 (1)1593 (1)1600 (1)1605 (2)1613 (1)1622 (1)1624 (1)1692 (1)1715 (1)1724 (1)1745 (1)1747 (1)1761 (1)1787 (1)1793 (1)1828 (1)1852 (1)1869 (1)1875 (1)1876 (1)1895 (1)1898 (1)1899 (1)1900 (1)1908 (1)1929 (2)1932 (1)1934 (1)1972 (2)2010 (1)Standing StatusAllDemolished (1)Reconstructed (1)Ruined (1)Standing (84)Under Construction or Never Completed (1)GroupAllPalaces of Central Italy (36)Palaces of Eastern Europe and Russia (2)Palaces of Northern Italy (23)Palaces of South and East Asia (2)Palaces of Southern Italy (4)Palaces of the Italian Islands (3)Palaces of the United Kingdom and Ireland (2)Palaces of Western Europe (16)PlaceAllAustria (1)China (1)Czechia (1)France (6)Germany (3)Greece (3)Italy (68)Japan (1)Malta (2)Switzerland (1)United Kingdom (1)Vatican City (1)BrowseCompareSelect all 88Bicocca degli ArcimboldiVillaCasina Pio IVVillaCastel Sainte-ClaireVillaChateau de l'HorizonVillaDelizia di BelriguardoVillaDomaine of VillarceauxVillaHaardt CastleVillaKing's House on SchachenVillaMarble Hill HouseVillaMeiling PalaceVillaMon Repos, CorfuVillaPalais Rose, VesinetVillaPalazzina Gonzaghesca di Bosco FontanaVillaPetschek VillaVillaPoggio Reale (villa)VillaTenkyokakuVillaTenuta Reale (Viareggio)VillaVarramista GardensVillaVilla AbamelekVillaVilla AlbaniVillaVilla AldobrandiniVillaVilla AllatiniVillaVilla ArrigonaVillaVilla Barbarigo (Valsanzibio)VillaVilla Carafa of BelvedereVillaVilla CarlottaVillaVilla Cicogna Mozzoni, BisuschioVillaVilla CigolottiVillaVilla CyrnosVillaVilla dei Vescovi, LuviglianoVillaVilla del BalbianelloVillaVilla del BalbianoVillaVilla del Poggio ImperialeVillaVilla del TrebbioVillaVilla Della Porta BozzoloVillaVilla delle PeschiereVillaVilla d'EsteVillaVilla di CastelloVillaVilla di MarignolleVillaVilla di MontevettoliniVillaVilla Di Negro Rosazza dello ScogliettoVillaVilla di PratolinoVillaVilla Donn'AnnaVillaVilla Doria PamphiliVillaVilla Doria PamphiljVillaVilla DuodoVillaVilla EtelindaVillaVilla FalconieriVillaVilla FarnesinaVillaVilla GamberaiaVillaVilla Garzoni (Pontecasale)VillaVilla GiuliaVillaVilla GiustiVillaVilla GuardamangiaVillaVilla La MagiaVillaVilla La PetraiaVillaVilla La PietraVillaVilla La Rotonda, InverigoVillaVilla LancellottiVillaVilla LanteVillaVilla Lante al GianicoloVillaVilla LudovisiVillaVilla LudwigshöheVillaVilla Medici at CafaggioloVillaVilla Medici at CareggiVillaVilla MutiVillaVilla NegroniVillaVilla of TrajanVillaVilla PalagoniaVillaVilla Palmieri, FiesoleVillaVilla ParisiVillaVilla ParisioVillaVilla Pisani, StraVillaVilla RotondaVillaVilla RufinellaVillaVilla RufoloVillaVilla RuscianoVillaVilla Sacchetti at CastelfusanoVillaVilla SerbelloniVillaVilla SimonettaVillaVilla SpedalottoVillaVilla Torlonia, FrascatiVillaVilla Torlonia, RomeVillaVilla TorrigianiVillaVilla ValguarneraVillaVilla VecchiaVillaVilla WartholzVillaVilla WindsorVillaSources1.
