IL B&B

BED & BREAKFAST

The B&B Toson d'Oro was born from the idea and passion of Ombretta and Bruno, who have been able to finely restructure an elegant residence within the walls of the historic center of Sabbioneta.

Sabbioneta is considered the "Ideal City" of the Renaissance, founded by Duke Vespasiano Gonzaga in the 16th century and which, together with Mantua, entered in 2008 in the list of UNESCO World Heritage Sites.

The aesthetic taste and the search for detail have made possible to blend the ancient elements with the modern ones, making the most of every single room.

B&B Toson d'Oro consists of two rooms, Giulia and Isabella, and a suite, Vespasiano.

​

WHY  "TOSON D'ORO"

​

The "Toson d'Oro" represents the most prestigious imperial award conferred to Duke Vespasiano Gonzaga in 1585 on the merits of loyalty, obedience and gratitude from Emperor Philip II of Spain.
It represents the most important recognition of the Emperor to his childhood companion Vespasiano, who then built his "Ideal City" according to the canons of the 16th century and which still represents the important legacy of the Duke.

The ram fleece is the symbol of this honor, a few grams of gold but of inestimable historical and moral value.

The Golden Fleece is also the symbol chosen for the Bed & Breakfast as the ideal continuity between the Duke's thought and the modern way of enjoying his city.

MUST-SEE ATTRACTIONS IN SABBIONETA

Town Walls 

Thanks to skilled engineers and expert architects, in the second half of the sixteenth century Vespasiano Gonzaga succeeded in creating an irregular hexagon-shaped wall with six wedge-shaped bastions designed by Girolamo Cattaneo and Bernardino Panizzari from Piacenza.

Olympic Theatre

It was the first theater in Italy conceived and designed to have a life of its own and not be a part of an existing building. It is considered the architectural masterpiece of Vincenzo Scamozzi, who followed the design and construction from 1588 to 1590.

Galleria degli Antichi

Deeply wanted by Vespasiano Gonzaga to house his collectibles, the "Galleria degli Antichi" is a vast corridor built on one side of the Doge's Palace, where stunning fresco decorations can be admired.

Doge's Palace

Among the oldest buildings in the city, the Doge's Palace is a large sixteenth-century two-storey complex that preserves splendid ceilings of inlaid wood and gold.

Palazzo Giardino

Private residence and place of the duke's otium, Palazzo Giardino collects a cycle of frescoes of great value, dedicated to the political and military virtues, made by Bernardino Campi.

UNESCO cycle route

The route, which connects Sabbioneta and Mantua, winds on low-traffic roads, through the wetlands of the Parco Oglio Sud, allowing you to discover unexplored environments and better appreciate the cultural landscape characteristics of the territory.
