It stood on the border of the rival cities of Pisa and Lucca and was a castle of the Maritime Republic.\r\nThe construction of the present <strong>Church of San Jacopo<\/strong> (formerly named after San Girolamo) is due to the Archbishop of Pisa, while <strong>Lorenzo the Magnificent<\/strong> had the present <strong>Villa Tadini<\/strong> built as a hunting lodge and holiday resort.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The marriage of his daughter Maddalena and Francesco <strong>Cybo Malaspina<\/strong> determined the passage of Agnano into the ownership of the new family. At the beginning of the 16th century, the villa was renovated, assuming a U-shape in Renaissance style with an Italian garden with trees and a rectangular fishpond according to a design attributed to Giovan Battista da Sangallo.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With the last descendant of the Cybo family, Maria Beatrice d&#8217;Este, the estate became part of the <strong>Lorraine<\/strong> patrimony, who restored it and created the romantic English-style park with thick vegetation of lime trees, cedars of Lebanon, acacias, magnolias and groves of camellias. Later, the 19th-century aviary from the Boboli Gardens in Florence, originally commissioned by King Victor Emmanuel II, was placed here.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Finally, the chocolate merchant <strong>Oscar Tobler<\/strong> bought the estate in Agnano and became its sole owner. Following the union of his daughter Anna with <strong>Count Mario Tadini Buoninsegni<\/strong>, the old mansion took the name Villa Tadini and still belongs to the same family.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Villa, which in the past hosted literati such as Poliziano and Pulci, is the venue for concerts and shows.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":49735,"parent":0,"template":"","tipo-attrazione":[],"filter-who":[],"filter-time":[],"class_list":["post-52182","attrazione","type-attrazione","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":[],"wpml_current_locale":"en_US","wpml_translations":[{"locale":"it_IT","id":49733,"post_title":"San Giuliano Terme | Agnano, Villa Tadini","href":"https:\/\/www.terredipisa.it\/san-giuliano-terme-agnano-pisano\/"}],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.terredipisa.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/attrazione\/52182","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.terredipisa.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/attrazione"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.terredipisa.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/attrazione"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.terredipisa.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/49735"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.terredipisa.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=52182"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"tipo-attrazione","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.terredipisa.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tipo-attrazione?post=52182"},{"taxonomy":"filter-who","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.terredipisa.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/filter-who?post=52182"},{"taxonomy":"filter-time","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.terredipisa.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/filter-time?post=52182"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
