Located in the heart of Marostica, Piazza degli Scacchi represents one of the most evocative views in the Veneto region. Also known as Piazza Castello, it owes its fame to the monumental white and pink marble chessboard embedded in the pavement, framed by the imposing city walls and the Lower Castle. This space becomes the protagonist every two years, in September, of the famous Human Chess Game, a historical reenactment in costume that transforms the square into an open-air theatre. Legend tells of a chivalrous challenge in 1454 held for the hand of the noble Lionora, replacing a bloody duel with a contest of wits. Beyond folklore, the square is the beating heart of city life, dominated by the scenic view of the walls that climb up to the Upper Castle.

Villa Piovene (1541) stands just above the contemporary and more renowned Villa Godi (1540), on the same hill of Lonedo... and it's no coincidence! It was indeed commissioned by the Piovenes in open and declared competition with the Godi residence: the two noble families from Vicenza, at the time the most important in the area, were in continuous and increasingly bitter rivalry to divide the large estates of the district. With evident Palladian inspiration, it dominates the hill with its elegance and symmetry: a scenic front staircase, framed by statues and an Italian garden arranged on four terraces, descends from the villa to the sumptuous eighteenth-century wrought iron gate. Villa Piovene Porto Godi (this is the full name) is open in the afternoon from March to September, for a fee (4.5€): the interiors are off-limits as it is a private residence, but you can visit the front garden with its beautiful staircase, the chapel, and the large, silent park with centuries-old trees. https://villapiovene.weebly.com https://loveneto.wordpress.com/2016/11/15/un-cancello-su-lugo/
