The so-called Villa de Vecchi, also known as "Musollini House", was built in the 1930s by an Italian governor and was later to serve as the summer house of the Italian dictator Musollini.
However, the villa was never inhabited by him.
Today the villa is an interesting destination and to be discovered as a ruin.
