Garden and Landscape Design School - Florence

The Garden Landscape school is situated in Villa Peyron, a XX century villa near the ancient hilltop city of Fiesole, a few miles north of Florence. The villa and its park are the property of the Fondazione Parchi Monumentali Bardini e Peyron and was planned and built by Paolo Peyron, the scion of a rich family of Piedmontese industrialists.
