Villa Pisani, Stra

Villa Pisani at Stra is a monumental late Baroque palace on the Brenta Canal near Stra in the Veneto region of Italy, ranked among the largest of the Villas of the Brenta. It was built in the early 18th century for the Pisani family, with initial designs by Girolamo Frigimelica Roberti before Francesco Maria Preti completed the final design, and reportedly contains 114 rooms honoring Alvise Pisani's election as the 114th Doge of Venice in 1735. Ownership passed from the Pisani family to Napoleon in 1807, to the House of Habsburg in 1814, to the House of Savoy after 1866, and to the Italian state in 1882, and the palace now operates as a national museum with art exhibitions.
