BLANC VILLA

VILLA BLANC

Via Nomentana 216

1896/97 Francesco Mora (nineteenth century) and the archaeologist-architect Giacomo Boni (1859/1925) for the Baron Alberto Blanc, foreign minister in the Crispi government at the end of 1800s

In the park of about 47,000 m² (11.6 acres) there is an “Ancient monument of Tor di Quinto” moved here by Giacomo Boni

Since 1992 it belongs to the Italian state that, according to the plan, should transform it into a public park with local public services

It seems that, for the disgraceful will of the Rome administration, the villa is set to become the school of management at the LUISS University with adjoining parking lots and almost total closure to the public
