Castello di Thiene takes company events, conferences, private dinners and weddings in a 15th-century villa in Thiene, a few minutes from Vicenza. The grounds cover 15,000 square meters, with a noble courtyard, a romantic garden, a neo-Gothic portico, 18th-century stables and a series of halls with period furniture and frescoes. The family of Thiene still owns it as a private home.
Seminars and company events
The castle presents itself as a location for workshops, fashion shows, conferences, private dinners and networking events. Three spaces matter for a company organizer. The large courtyard, with the castle facade as a backdrop, is suited to a stage for presentations, shows and launches, with room for an audience in front. The grand loggia can be turned into a wide conference room for seminars, corporate presentations and networking meetings. Inside, the castle halls, each with its own furniture and frescoes, can serve as working areas for client meetings, workshops or small seminars. The romantic garden handles outdoor cocktails and receptions with reception areas set up on the lawn. The official site publishes no capacities, so send the team your numbers and format to receive a quote and the floor plan, which the site offers as a download.
Weddings and receptions
The castle lists weddings and receptions among its private events. The great courtyard, surrounded by 15 century-old magnolias, suits outdoor ceremonies, welcome cocktails and photographs. The garden behind the castle, with its cedar grove and Renaissance grotto, is described for receptions and banquets. The 18th-century stables work for banquets and evening parties, or as a room for exchanging vows. The neo-Gothic portico gives a covered setting for the reception and the cake cutting. The halls inside offer different atmospheres for smaller moments.
Rooms and capacities
The spaces named on the site are the noble courtyard, the loggia, the romantic garden, the neo-Gothic portico, the 18th-century stables and the interior halls. No room has a stated capacity. Ask for the floor plan and confirm the seated and standing numbers for each space against your event.
Accommodation
The castle offers four bedrooms on the noble floor, reached through the great atrium: the Suite delle Magnolie of 60 square meters with a large double bed and three windows on the courtyard, the Camera della Cedraia, the Camera del Giardino Segreto and the Camera del Camino. Together they suit a small group, such as a wedding party or a company board, rather than a large event.
History and setting
The castle is a 15th-century residence that the site calls an outstanding example of a pre-Palladian Venetian villa. It combines features of a fortress with those of a Venetian palace, in particular the casa-fondaco, a house that served as home, warehouse and trading place. More than five hundred years of changes have layered its functions, furnishings and decoration. The castle keeps a historical archive covering the 11th to the 20th centuries, a Gothic chapel, old kitchens and a 16th-century cellar, which guided tours open on selected days.
