Liberty style in Riccione

Liberty style in Riccione

One of the most important attractions of Riccione are the Art Nouveau villas, tourists walking in the center and in the Abyssinia area can appreciate elegant and pleasant residences; hidden treasures and fine examples of seaside architecture from the late 1800s and early 1900s.

Una stagione del liberty a Riccione

The Liberty or floral style is an Italian art form, which derives from Art Decò, with the aim of opposing the industrialization that had invaded all aspects of life.

The term Liberty derives from the name of the Englishman Arthur Lasenby Liberty (1858-1919), a London merchant of art and high-quality objects intended for large-scale consumption.

It was a decorative style, which found expression in architecture, interior design, the art of metalworking and glass.

 

The Art Nouveau villas are precious evidence of the history of tourism.

 

Let's find out some of them:
 

Villa Mussolini

It is the most famous in the city, built in 1890 with the name of Villa Margherita, before being purchased by Donna Rachele Guidi Mussolini around 1935.

It was the summer residence of Benito Mussolini, it stretches out with its garden towards the sea and Piazzale Roma.

The villa could be seen walking along the Via Litoranea, not far from the crossroads of what is now known as Viale Milano.

It is a building characterized by stylistic simplicity, few decorations and internally it has thirteen rooms.

Villa Lodi Fe

It was built by Decio Monti of Bologna, then passed to the Lodi Fè with the marriage of a descendant.

The exact date of construction of the villa is not known, but it is thought to date back to the first decades of the 1900s.

It is located inside the Pope John Paul II Park, home of the Ilaria Alpi television journalism award and the Riccione Teatro association.

Its peculiarity is the chalet shape, which intrigues and fascinates even just seeing it from outside the park, with fairy-tale outlines and arched windows, decorative motifs, sloping roofs and rows of trees that lead to the entrance staircase.


Villa Franceschi

It is today the headquarters of the Modern and Contemporary Art Gallery of Riccione, but it was once a luxurious villa for summer holidays.


The architectural layout is based on simplicity with a semi-hexagonal shape: the staircase is located on the central axis, the rooms on the sides and the external decorations in concrete are of great value.

The rooms on the ground floor have a lookout window overlooking the garden, the turret at the back was used by holidaymakers to admire the sea.
