Villa Favard is a splendid historical residence located in the district of Rovezzano. In ancient times, known as Palagio dei Pini, from the 15th to the 19th century it was owned by the Cerchi family and then by the Bartolini family, before moving to Baroness Fiorella Favard de l’Anglade, who commissioned the architect Giuseppe Poggi to restore the building and the large adjacent garden. The architect projected a stable, a chapel, with frescoes by Annibale Gatti and Giovanni Duprè, and he designed the garden in a typically English style. Today it is the home of Conservatorio Cherubini Firenze, as well as being used for cultural events and meetings.
