Villa dei Cedri
Last updated on September 7, 2026Overview
Villa dei Cedri is a nineteenth-century villa in a park of old cedars at the edge of Valdobbiadene, now owned by the town. It is the one piece of formal architecture in a place otherwise defined by farm buildings and vineyards, and its park is where the town goes to sit down.
Quick Facts
- Type: Mansion, Garden
- Local name: Villa dei Cedri (vedi la pagina italiana)
- Built: 19th century
- Architectural style: Neoclassical
- Named for its trees: The cedars of Lebanon planted with the house are now the oldest and largest in the town.
- The one formal building: Everything else in this district is farm structure or vineyard terrace; the villa is a reminder of the landowning class the smallholders replaced.
Visit Responsibly
This is a municipal park serving a small town, not a visitor attraction, and is used as such. The mature trees are the asset; stay off their root zones.
Events here are run by local associations, and attending one puts money into the town rather than into the wine trade on the hill.

Plan Your Visit
The park is free and open daily. The villa itself opens for exhibitions and events rather than on fixed hours -- worth checking the town's calendar if you want to get inside.
A few minutes' walk from Valdobbiadene's main square, on the edge of the built-up area.
When to Visit
Spring, when the park is at its best and the Mostra del Valdobbiadene brings the villa into use.
Summer afternoons for the shade, which is genuinely welcome after a morning on the exposed slopes above.
