Villa Cusani Confalonieri is a Villa di Delizia of Brianza. Originally the building was a medieval fortified edifice, rising in an elevated and strategic position on the Lambro valley, but it was transformed by the noble Milanese Confalonieri family into a residential villa from the first half of the seventeenth century, with interventions in the following two centuries that brought it to its present conformation.
The villa has the characteristic "U" plan, with an elongated central body, and two asymmetrical wings on the sides. A portico from the 16th-century period opens in the center. Characteristic of the villa are the northwest tower (what remains of the medieval structure incorporated into the villa) and the 16th-century columned portico that opens toward theOratory of Santa Maria Maddalena, an interesting religious building from the late 15th century.
All around the villa departs a harmonious Italian garden, with boxwood parterres, of seventeenth-century layout.
The villa, owned by the municipality, houses the public library and is complemented by a vast park.
