About the Gala Dinner Venue
Villa and Palazzo Aminta is not only an elegant gem set in the green mountains of northern Italy, but a jewellery box full of memories ready to unfold with the slightest touch.
Initially built as the personal residence of the Admiral of the Royal Navy Francesco Capece, the hotel still bears the name of his dear, beloved wife Aminta. In 1918, the Admiral, in love with the gentle contours of the landscape of the lake, decided to lay the foundations for his refined home on these green slopes.
In the decades that passed, numerous representatives of the Belle Epoque walked through the halls of what was then Admiral Capece's residence.
In 1926, Paolo Troubetzkoy, a great artist with Russian origins, born in the nearby Intra, made a sculpture to his friend, the Irish playwright, George Bernard Shaw, who visited Lake Maggiore as a guest of the Admiral and his wife, and was captivated by the incredibly beautiful landscape.
In more recent years, in 1966, Liz Taylor and Richard Burton chose Villa Aminta for one of their countless romantic getaways.
The Zanetta family has skilfully restored the building to its original splendour: The Villa has been extended and embellished with antique furniture, stuccoes, chandeliers, precious tapestries, arabesques and oriental-style volutes, paying tribute to the historical relationship with the Republic of Venice “Gateway to the East”.
