Villa Donini
In 1884, with the opening of the railway, Cervia began to face the new tourist reality. On the front line, from Viale dei Bagni to the sea, on the areas granted by the Municipality, numerous Art Nouveau villas were quickly built ready to host the first timid tourists in the area. Among all, the beautiful Villa Donini still existing stood out. The typical villa, with two main entrances, overlooked the then wild beach and allowed a superb view of the sea from the house's turret.
