Armeno is located on the slope that from Orta S. Giulio goes to Mottarone. Worth a visit for the splendid Romanesque parish church of the Assumption with indications that date it back to the third century

Villa Crespi, Orta San Giulio

Highlight • Historical Site

Villa Crespi in Orta San Giulio (Piedmont) is a Moorish-style residence established in 1879 as the country estate of the Italian cotton industrialist Cristoforo Benigno Crespi.

The building, which can be seen from afar through its miniature tower, is an example of oriental architecture in Italy. His builder, who also had the industrial estate Crespi d'Adda built, is said to have chosen this style as a sign of his attachment to the Orient, especially Baghdad. Especially among Crespi's son Silvio Benigno Crespi (1868-1944), one of Italy's most influential industrial magnates until 1929, and among the successors, the Marchesi Fracassi di Torre Rossano, the villa became the meeting place of the country's aristocratic, industrial and political elite.

Today there is a small luxury hotel in the villa.
