Villa Principe Leopoldo
Collina d´Oro, Lugano, Switzerland
A former princely residence to the Hohenzollern, Villa Principe Leopoldo reigns majestically over Lugano. The Hohenzollern were an eminent German noble family which ruled over Prussia from 1701 and all of Germany as Kaiser after 1871. In 1926, the cavalry general Friederich Leopold, commissioned a summer residence Villa Principe Leopoldo. The villa was witness to world changing history as it served as the family residence. Illustrious figures from the illustrious noble European families sojourned at the villa until Leopold?s death in 1931.
The villa is formed like a natural arena. The mountains form a circular stage with their reflection in the blue of the lake and the sparkling lights of the banks of the city of Lugano. In the years following the hotel?s opening in 1986, world renowned celebrities returned. Opera singers, actors and famous American singers were frequent guests. The long guest list was completed with members of royal families and important leaders from finance, politics and industry.
The same is true today as important stars and sports personalities frequent the villa during their stays in and around Lugano. Their appreciation is double fold because of Villa Principe Leopoldo?s discreet attention to privacy.
Do not miss the chance to enjoy the property and the many activities, including visiting The Hermann Hesse Museum.
