Villa Lehner is a historic neoclassical residence located in Trieste, in the contrada di Romagna, made famous by the wars between the Triestines and the Venetians.
Built around 1840 as Villa Schwachhofer to a design by architect Antonio Buttazzoni (1798-1848), it later passed to the Lehner family. The building is distinguished by its double ramps, depicted in a 19th-century drawing by Giuseppe Lorenzo Gatteri, characterized by a spirited and confident pencil stroke.
Set in Trieste's neoclassical context, it exemplifies the residential architecture of the 19th century in the city. The property is located at via di Romagna 17-25 and represents a typical suburban villa of the period, with decorative and structural elements typical of the neoclassical style.
Although detailed information on its internal history is limited, Villa Lehner contributes to Trieste's architectural heritage, evoking the rural and noble past of the contrada di Romagna.
