CURIOSITY: The Villa Melli complex plays a leading role among the Parma properties as well as for the quality of the architecture, also for the role of historical testimony that it has assumed with respect to the territory. The widespread practice in the post-unification period among the exponents of the bourgeoisie to create a place for recreation near the city, led Eng. Priamo Panizzi, owner and designer, to build both the villa and the guesthouse in 1891, to then sell it to Dr. Carlo Melli, a member of an illustrious Jewish family from Parma. The villa maintained its connotation of secondary residence for a long time to host the family during the summer and for the receptions that were organized here, among the illustrious guests of this period is the princess Jolanda of Savoy. During the war it was abandoned and subsequently seized by the German squads who elected it the headquarters of the general command, making it the reference point for a wider system of requisitions of valuable properties and only with the end of the war was it returned to its legitimate owners. Subsequently the complex was partially abandoned and only after several changes of ownership, was it acquired by the family that today is the current owner who completely renovated it to adapt it to the new housing needs.
