About
Villa Pandolfini is a Renaissance villa near Florence, Italy in Lastra a Signa, and close to the Arno River. The villa was commissioned by Battista Pandolfini and built in the late 15th century (1485–1488) to a design attributed to Desiderio da Settignano. The Pandolfini family already owned the medieval tower that is currently in front of the main entrance to the villa. Under the ownership of Agnolo Pandolfini, a friend of Cosimo de' Medici, the tower hosted historical figures such as Leon Battista Alberti, Benedetto da Rovezzano, Pope Eugene IV, Renais D'Anjou, Francesco Sforza. The presence in the villa of Charles VIII of France is documented in 1495, just before he was about to enter Florence with his army.
