Welcome to Villa Elena

Available for cultural events, retreats, spiritual exercises, conferences and refresher courses. It also welcomes parish groups and associations for training sessions of their own.

Villa Elena da Persico

Villa Elena was once the residence of Elena da Persico

(Journalist 1869-1948).

Starting in the early 20th century, Elena organised opportunities for interaction and education in response to the cultural and social needs of her time. Now, the villa continues her work of a cultural, spiritual and ecclesial nature: it is host to conferences held annually by the Elena da Persico Foundation and other Veronese associations; throughout the year, it offers a Scripture reading course.

THE LOCATION

Surrounded by Art and Nature

Villa Elena is located in the heart of ancient, wooded parkland, which offers ample shade and tranquil silence. The villa is situated a few kilometres from the stunning Lake Garda and is nestled in the green hills of Verona. Just a half-hour’s drive from the artistic and historic sights of the beautiful city of Verona, and it is easily accessible from the Affi motorway junction and Valerio Catullo airport.

Cultural and Spiritual Initiatives

Villa Elena is a centre for spiritual exercises, Bible courses, conferences and refresher courses. Its aims include the promotion of social and cultural initiatives with a focus on the growth of society following the values of Christian solidarity.
