PARMA - HISTORICAL VILLAS AND CASTLES FOR SALE IN EMILIA-ROMAGNA

According to Tito Livio the foundation of Parma would be due to the Etruscans, but it was only with the Roman conquest of 183 BC that the city reached its maximum development. The decadence of Rome also led to the decline of Parma, who lived a second golden age under the Byzantine rule (it was even known with the name Χρυσ?πολις, "the golden city"). Among the medieval events, mention must be made of the city's participation to the Lombard League against Barbarossa and the long struggle between Guelphs and Ghibellines between the 12th and 14th centuries. In the following centuries the duchy was the object of contention, passing over the years to the papacy, the Spaniards, the Austrians, again to the Spaniards, the French, then back to the Habsburgs and finally, in 1859, to the Kingdom of Italy that established the homonym province.

Among the most beautiful and interesting monuments of Parma we must remember the Cathedral with the baptistery, the Basilica della Steccata, the Palazzo della Pilotta, the Episcopal Palace and the Rangoni-Farnese Palace. There are also neoclassical villas built directly inside the city, such as Villa Malenchini and Villa Avogadro.
