The Villa Cicogna Mozzoni is a fine example of Italian Lombard Renaissance architecture. It is located near Varese, in the town of Bisuschio. The Villa was first built by the Mozzoni family in 1400 as a hunting lodge. Given its proximity to the Alps, the area teemed with wildlife. Bears were also present and an important event in the family lore - described below - is tied to an incident involving a bear attack. The Mozzoni family was a noble Milanese family which had retired to the area around Varese (documents prove their presence in Arcisate and Induno first and then in Bisuschio) after factional struggles between the Della Torre and the Visconti families and their allies. After the Visconti family was replaced by the Sforza, the Mozzoni entered in the graces of the new Milanese ruling family.
