    One of the most popular images of the Naviglio Grande.
    Built on a hill, where some believe it hosted the ancient "Castelletto di Cuggiono" from which the hamlet itself takes its name. However, in this same place stood a noble house which was also called "castle" which in 1658 became the property of the Clerici who decided to demolish it to build a new one worthy of its status. This building program ended with the advent of Anton Giorgio Clerici, nephew of the Marquis, who probably built the staircase with its hanging gardens by 1743.
    Also described by the writer Marcantonio Dal Re "one of the most beautiful and noble villas that can be found in Lombardy".
    It remained the property of the family until 1872.

    Taken from "Along the Naviglio Grande: municipalities, villas and historic buildings" by Francesca Rognoni.
