Parco Giardino Sigurtà: a magical display of color and nature
From noble origins to gardens open to all
Parco Giardino Sigurtà has a fascinating history that dates back over four centuries. Originally part of the dowry of the noble Maffei family, the park now covers 60 hectares, evolving from a private garden into a public wonder. In 1941, Dr. Carlo Sigurtà purchased the land and introduced an innovative irrigation system, transforming what was once arid land into lush gardens.
Over the years, Parco Giardino Sigurtà has been enriched with small lakes, floral hills, and shady avenues that invite discovery and relaxation. Every corner is carefully maintained, creating a harmonious space where nature and history blend seamlessly. Today, the park is not only recognized as one of the most beautiful gardens in Italy, but also as an outstanding example of landscape restoration and conservation, frequently awarded for its beauty and its commitment to biodiversity and cultural heritage.
Tulipanomania: the festival that colors the paths of Parco Giardino Sigurtà
Every spring, Parco Giardino Sigurtà turns into a breathtaking display of color thanks to Tulipanomania, one of the largest and most spectacular flower festivals in Italy. This event celebrates the blooming of over one million tulips, creating a colorful carpet stretching along the park’s pathways. In addition to the classic red, yellow, and pink tulips, you’ll find rare and surprising varieties that attract botany enthusiasts and photographers from all over the world. Tulipanomania is not only a chance to admire tulip beauty—it’s an immersive nature experience.
