Villa Contarini-Pisani, known as the "Lions", overlooks the Naviglio del Brenta and is one of the historic residences of the Riviera. Built in the 16th century as a country residence for a Venetian family, it owes its nickname to the two stone lions that guard the entrance. Over the centuries, it also hosted illustrious figures, including the King of France Henry III, and preserves the memory of the great era of Venetian villas along the Brenta.

The Mausoleo Conti Medin, located along Via Barbariga in Paluello (a hamlet of Stra), is a suggestive funerary monument from the late 19th century immersed in the greenery of the Riviera del Brenta. Commissioned by Count Pietro Conti Medin for his own family, the tomb is distinguished by its pronounced eclectic style with neo-Gothic influences. The structure, developed with a vertical thrust, features refined stone decorations, pointed arches, reliefs, and attention to sculptural details that evoke the spirituality and aesthetic taste of Romanticism. Surrounded by the park of the adjacent Villa Conti Medin, the mausoleum constitutes a testimony of great historical-artistic and landscape value, linked to the memory of an illustrious noble family and the architectural heritage of the Dolo-Strano territory.
