LAZIO - VITERBO - LUBRIANO LUXURY HISTORY VILLA Prestigious historic villa from the early 11th century, the Palazzo dei Monaldeschi della Cervara di Lubriano stands in the Valle dei Calanchi, on the border between Umbria and Lazio, in the heart of the ancient medieval village of Lubriano. The building, which develops an area of about 2600 commercial square meters, is divided into various rooms both for residential use and for receptions and events. Inside we find 23 bathrooms, 14 bedrooms, 2 kitchens, 2 dining rooms, 2 studies, a huge living room, a bright winter garden and many other rooms used as services; there are also an elevator and a freight elevator inside the structure. Also part of the property are two cellars, located under the Palazzo and with different accesses of the surface of approximately 50 m2 and 80 m2. Furthermore, on the outside there are various terraces located on different levels, a swimming pool measuring 8 x 18 ml and a well-kept garden completes the property. The property overlooks the wonderful Civita di Bagnoregio called the dying city. Originally the village was dominated by a convent of monks and was inhabited by a small community of laborers and craftsmen who had settled in that area. One of the most prestigious and representative Orvieto families of that time, the MONALDESCHI della Cervara, whose coat of arms, composed of gold frets on a blue field, is frescoed in the vault of the entrance to Palazzo Monaldeschi, acquired the convent and the surrounding wooded area. The hermitage was thus transformed into a small country castle used precisely to host the owners and their court for leisure and entertainment. The Palazzo remained the property of the Monaldeschi family for 500 years and retained its original appearance until 1600. Paolo Antonio Monaldeschi, the last male heir of the family, decided to completely renovate the building. Thus he entrusted himself to the well-known architect Giovan Battista Gazale di Vignanello who redesigned it in a Baroque style. The Palazzo includes numerous rooms and outdoor spaces, such as the roof garden, to accommodate up to 300 people in the context of a splendid Baroque Historical Residence, ideal for unforgettable receptions. Just to name a few, the Sala Specchi welcomes up to 140 guests, the Sala Arazzo up to 90; the Sala Tevere, with up to 40 period canvases representing glimpses of the Teverina; finally, the Sala dei Rosoni would allow, with a reception of 50 seats, to exceed, overall, the number of 300 guests. The Palazzo also includes numerous apartments to allow its guests to stay immersed in art, in peace and relaxation. Palazzo Monaldeschi hosts seminars, conferences, concerts, anniversaries, private parties and receptions of all kinds. It enjoys a fascinating and panoramic position and, at the same time, enviable from a tourist point of view. Close to the well-known Civita di Bagnoregio the dying city, at the same time it is only 30 km from Viterbo, 13 km from Bolsena lake and 100 km from Rome.
