Vatican City

Villa Pia

Villa Pia, also called the Casino Pio, a small summer house in the Vatican Gardens, that was built for Pope Pius IV in 1560. Villa Pia was designed in classical Roman style by Pirro Ligorio. It was a retreat where the pope held soirées at which invited scholars sat around an oval court discussing philosophy, poetry and religion.
