Villa Sagramoso Perez Pompei was built at the end of the 17th century at the behest of Giunio III, Count of Illasi, and was commissioned to the architect Pellesina, who also worked on parts of the Palace of Versailles, Villa Sigurtà, and the church of S. Nicolò in Verona.
Once the Pompei family extinguished, it was inherited by the cousins Perez and their descendants Sagramoso, who still reside there today. It is located about 200 meters from the center of the village.
It has the appearance of a city palace. It consists of a central body and two wings, long "barchesse", and stables.
The central body, with three floors, features a portico with five arches, alongside which is a double pair of rectangular openings with elegant stone frames. Along the noble floor, a series of windows surrounded by a simple linear stone frame are arranged. The two wings are set back from the main front. The left wing is the oldest part of the complex, dating back to 1615. At the first floor level, it presents a high Doric loggia. Inside, there are large salons, galleries, and rooms decorated with a cycle of 18th-century frescoes. Neoclassical decorations embellish the dining room and the living room on the ground floor.
In the large secular park, with an Italian garden spanning 60 hectares, there is a wide pathway 5 km long that starts from the villa and leads to the Scaliger Castle of Illasi. The vegetation appears partly spontaneous, partly pruned regularly. Along the path, one can glimpse a moat that was once a small lake, shaped like Lake Garda.
The eastern-style pavilion that once housed the greenhouses, adjacent to the Italian garden, has been recently transformed into a restaurant.
