Villaggio turistico “E.N.I.” Review

I spent the best years of my life, as an educator in ENI colony 11 years
and jealously guards there in my heart

I know the place very well because in 1984 I was lucky enough to attend the Eni colony, keeping a beautiful memory of it that I still carry with me. From the photos the place is always as beautiful as when I was there. Too bad it's a little neglected. Visit it, it's really worth it.

A desolation !!! it was beautiful ..... they destroyed everything Mattei built !!!

It very nice place. We just got there to have a look and it seemed like the time stopped there, it used to holiday village and now it is a little bit forgotten. It could be a perfect place to make a movie. It worth to be seen.

Architecture that intertwines with the landscape.
Luckily there are places that attest to the beauty of 20th century Italian architecture so well.
Highly recommended.

Hi, you managed to get me excited because in 1970 I was among the children guests of the colony. Seeing it again after 50 years is like taking a step back in time, every room visible through videos and photos brought to mind moments of joy and lightheartedness. I thank those who came up with this brilliant idea

I spent one of the most beautiful adolescent experiences of my life, Eni summer camps. I'm 73, who knows how many like me

I spent, as a child, for many years, my holidays in the colony, in this magical and enchanting place.
I still experience the emotion of what I experienced.

Finally I managed to find the place of my summer camps. I read that someone else was here in the colony. I have no memories of anyone but I have old photos that I would like to share with those who have been here. Maybe you recognize it. The ramps with yellow railings always the same.

Interesting complex of twentieth-century architecture dedicated to social issues (it was conceived as the summer residence for ENI employees), where the visionary intuition of the client (Enrico Mattei) married here with the aesthetic and technical skills of the architects, who among the collaborations, he also saw that of Carlo Scarpa for the construction of the church. Too bad for the little information, both on site and on the web (despite a project that aims to enhance and promote it), which make it an anonymous place for those who visit it. Communication is fragmented and easily misunderstood.
The impression is that of a self-referential project, closed and not dedicated to the community. Sin!

Great efforts to find a new horizon and use for the place. The tour guide visit was very well done and prepared

The village deserves a serious redevelopment because the place is beautiful and historically and culturally an excellence. An applause to the association that animates the structure but would need a real investment.

Wonders of an Italy that has forgotten, Carlo Scarpa & Edoardo Gellner
and that extraordinary man who was Enrico Mattei

I was there too in the colony in 84 and they traumatized me,

This was a five star place where I spent the most exciting summers of my teenage years. The campsite was a marvel and for us kids back then, a daydream. A few days ago I was in the area and I wanted to retrace those places. Unfortunately today the structures are decaying, many trees uprooted and everything seems worn by time. A real disappointment to find it like this .. it still remains a magical place for me with a wonderful view of the Pelmo and the Antelao ...

Abandoned. Very sad to see how it is possible not to exploit otherwise very beautiful places and sites.

I went there as a child in a summer camp if I'm not mistaken it was in the late 80's or early 90's ...
Beautiful places and good memories

I put 5 stars, we managed to see some pavilions. My memory goes back to more than thirty years ago when it was a colony. I am from 73. Now it is very neglected but for me it is as if time had stopped

I put 5 stars x how this place was
..I spent wonderful moments in the late 70's and early 80's with my sister and my parents .. practically nothing was missing in the villas immersed in the woods
There were recreational activities for us little ones from games to the cinema and always all for free ... unique and wonderful sin x the end that has now ended
