The Congress Dinner will be held at the beautiful Villa Miani. Built high up on the slopes of Monte Mario in the early 1900s for the Miani Counts, this villa almost seems to brush the cupola of St. Peter's. Built in King Humbert (Victorian) style, this wonderful home is immersed in the greenery of a beautifully kept garden, and offers a unique panorama overlooking the city of Rome. The villa is reached by a private drive of approximately 1km which cuts through its century old park. Today, Villa Miani is outside and yet inside Rome at the same time. It is located in a large, secluded park, away from traffic; yet, any point of the city below is easily accessible in a few minutes. In this way, Villa Miani preserves its exclusiveness. It has been a natural and aristocratic setting for many important events.
