Villa Godiola

ADA is housed in Villa Godiola on a hill outside the city of Arezzo. It has been used time and time again as an educational center of the arts - our Tarantella teacher attended university here! Interestingly, the children of Cosimo de' Medici were tutored in this villa as well. It was built in 1391 (and I thought our colonial house in Connecticut was old!).

Here are some photos I've taken around the Villa:
