Casa Lajolo, one of the most distinctive historical villas in the entire Piedmont region, features three main external areas: the garden, the vegetable garden and the traditional “prà giardin”. The Italian- style garden is worthy of particular note and has in fact recently been named as one of the most important heritage sites to be discovered in Piedmont by FAI, the ‘Fondo Ambiente Italiano’ or National Trust of Italy.
Arranged on three levels connected by stone stairs, the highest level features a forecourt which faces the manor house and is bordered by characteristic box hedges, which are also very visible on the second level. This section is in turn divided into two distinct parts: firstly, a symmetrical Italian garden which features a grove of yew trees that creates a verdant backdrop, and secondly an English-landscaped garden. The third area contains an orchard and a pergola.
The history of Casa Lajolo
Casa Lajolo acquired its current layout, which is believed to have been the work of Count Aleramo di Chialamberto, around the middle of the eighteenth century. This likely date is borne out by both the appearance of the external structure and the decorations on many of the ceilings.
When the Chialamberto family line died out in around 1850, the property was inherited by their cousins, the Counts Lajolo di Cossano. This ancestral family of Asti origin still own Casa Lajolo today.
