Villa Sommi, Picenardi is a luxurious historic residence of the Marquis Sommi, Picenardi, built in the late 17th – early 18th centuries in the small town of Torre De La Picenardi in the province of Cremona. The Villa is surrounded by a huge Park with centuries-old trees, among which lurked a tiny temples, ancient buildings and numerous statues.

The history of the villas actually originated in the late 17th century, when a noble family of Fat decided to build a country residence in their possessions Alta Brianza. By that time there were already the observation tower and the rural structure of the 14th century, which contained products. It is to this building and was attached Villa. Unfortunately, despite numerous searches, still have not managed to establish the name of the architect who built luxury house in the style of the Lombard Baroque. It is only known that the construction was completed in 1702, the ninth year – this date can be seen on the pediment of the chapel Santee Sant'ambrogio e Galdino.

In the 14th century on the site of the Villa was a fortified farm, typical of Lombardy, whose task was to guard the fertile land between the rivers oglio and Po. Here stood a viewing tower, which in the 17th century, together with the estate became part of a residential complex. English garden with rare flowers, located in front of the Villa, was significantly expanded in 1880 year, and after the Villa you can find Italian garden is on site today and seen stone statues and images of ancient gods and mythical creatures.

In the 1920s, the Villa became property of the Marquis Paolo Sommi, Picenardi di Calvatone, a distant relative of the family of Bacon, which, as a keen gardener-lover, greatly embellished his estate and garden. His work was continued by the heirs, who own a Villa today.
