The Villa Griffone was purchased by Giuseppe Marconi in the mid 19th century to establish silkworm breeding here, but it was rather used as a summer house. Giuseppe´s genious son Guglielmo, who won the nobel prize in 1909, spent much time here. Today the villa houses the Guglielmo Marconi Foundation. In the mausoleum below are the sarcophags of Guglielmo and his second wife Maria Cristina Bezzi Scali.
