The Villa Spedalotto is the country home of the Paterno di Spedalotto family. The villa is situated on a hill surrounded by olive groves at Bagheria, near Palermo in Sicily. As all the Villas in Bagheria, it was build as a country house, and was traditionally used by the family only during the spring and autumn. While considered a national monument, it remains a private residence. The house was first conceived by Don Barbaro Arezzo who employed in 1783 the architect Giovanni Emanuele Incardona to design his country house, the result - Villa Spedalotto was build between 1784 and 1793. The architect had been a student of Giuseppe Venanzio Marvuglia, one of Sicily's promoters of Neoclassicism. In 1790, while still under construction, the house was purchased by Don Onofrio Emanuele Paterno di Raddusa, Baron of Spedalotto and Gallitano.
