A family history
Villa Pulejo a nineteenth-century historical mansion with unique origins.
Villa Pulejo is a nineteenth-century historic mansion that has very important historical origins.
The Ficus Magnolioide, known as Magnolia, a symbol and true monument within the Park where the Villa itself is developed, dates back nearly three centuries and has been the subject of great honors over time.
Both Camillo Benso Conte di Cavour, author of the Unification of Italy and a close friend of Villa Pulejo’s founder, Consul of the Kingdom of Sardinia Francesco Lella, and Giuseppe Garibaldi, in the famous “Expedition of the Thousand,” paid homage to the villa and this open-air monument with a special visit during a couple of famous parades. In fact, the foundation stone of the villa was laid in the middle of the 19th century, while a few decades later, exactly in 1880, the construction of the historic mansion was completed. It thus passed from generation to generation, until it arrived in 1957 to the current heirs of the Pulejo Family. After a refined restoration work, maintaining the intrinsic historical peculiarities of elegance, refinement and charm, the historic mansion of Villa Pulejo in 2016 became Resort & Design Hotel, making the villa usable to the public for exclusive overnight stays and/or to celebrate dreamy anniversaries.
