Casa Macchi
Bequeathed to FAI by Maria Luisa Macchi in 2015
A few kilometers from Varese, in Morazzone, there is a charming provincial building that rises in the shadow of a bell tower of a church, in a quiet village. With a small village shop, there’s also an historic emporium at the service of the community, which gives new life to the historic workshop of Casa Macchi, restored and refurbished with furniture recovered from an old grocery store in Milan, also forced to close its doors.
For their fundamental contribution to the first wave of our restoration drive, we are grateful to Lombardy Region and Fondazione Cariplo which cooperated with Morazzone Town Council
Open from Thursday to Sunday from 10AM to 6PM.
