Villa Mussolini is a seaside villa in Riccione, in Emilia-Romagna, northern Italy.
Built in 1892,[1] the original two-storey villa had thirteen rooms and a side-turret on its south side.[1][2][3] In 1934, it was purchased by Rachele Guidi, second wife of Benito Mussolini, Italy's fascist dictator. The Mussolinis used it as a summer holiday home,[4] and expanded the property in 1940, adding an additional floor.[5] During his stays, Mussolini would conduct government business from the villa and host notable guests and foreign dignitaries.[3][5][6]
In 1997, the villa – by then called Villa Margherita – was purchased by the Cassa di Risparmio di Rimini, who loaned it to Riccione's municipal government.[5][6][7][8] After a one-million-euro restoration,[8][9] the villa reopened as Villa Mussolini in 2005. It hosts cultural events and exhibitions,[3][8][10] as well as civil wedding ceremonies.[11] The villa's name and use continues to attract local controversy.[9][10][12][13]
