Office in "Villa Astrid": architectural elegance in the heart of Varese

The city of Varese is situated on the shores of the lake of the same name. It is called the Garden City due to the numerous and splendid private and public gardens found within the municipality. The city of Varese is located in a distinctive position, at the foot of the Sacro Monte di Varese, which is part of the Campo dei Fiori Massif and hosts an astronomical observatory. Varese is laid out on seven hills: Colle di San Pedrino (402 m), Colle di Giubiano (407 m), Colle Campigli (453 m), Colle di Sant'Albino (406 m), Colle di Biumo Superiore (439 m), Colle di Montalbano (411 m), and Colle dei Miogni (492 m). The municipality's territory thus ranges between 238 and 1,150 meters above sea level. The winter in Varese is little affected by the mitigating influence of Lake Maggiore and other smaller lakes in the province. Late autumn and winter minimum temperatures frequently drop, albeit by a few degrees, below zero. It is precisely these low nighttime temperatures that create a different climate compared to areas south of the city. As in other pre-Alpine Lombard cities, fog is a rare phenomenon. Since 1960, it has hosted the only Italian location of the European School, created for the children of European officials of the Joint Research Centre. Milan Malpensa and Lugano Agno airports are about 30 minutes away. The shores of Lake Maggiore can be reached in a 20-minute drive.
