Villa Alari, also known as Villa Visconti di Saliceto or Villa Alari-Visconti, is a Rococo-style villa built in the 18th century in Cernusco sul Naviglio. The villa was commissioned from architect Giovanni Ruggeri by Giacinto Alari, Count of Tribiano, in 1703, with construction completed between 1719 and 1725.
It passed to the Visconti family in 1831 and was donated to the Fatebenefratelli Hospital in Milan in 1944. It has been owned by the Municipality of Cernusco sul Naviglio since 2007.

The 18th-century Villa Alari Visconti in Saliceto is among the "villas of delight" in the Milanese area, one of the most worthy of special mention. Construction began in 1703 and was completed in 1719. However, given the vastness of the project, entrusted in its entirety to the Roman architect Giovanni Ruggeri, and the certainty of the date of consecration of the chapel dedicated to Saint Hyacinth, the completion date can reasonably be moved to 1725, the year in which the stucco and fresco decorations were finally completed. The complex stands on the edge of town, north of the Martesana Canal, and is laid out along a longitudinal axis; towards the historic center of Cernusco, a courtyard flanked by two wings and enclosed by a taller central body; the rear façade, considered the main façade, overlooks the garden with access to the Martesana Canal. The central body was used for residential purposes, while the side buildings with adjoining rustic courtyards were used for services and agricultural activities.
