Casa Maria Luigia

Massimo Bottura’s countryside escape, where every detail feels personal

Casa Maria Luigia is an immersive escape curated by Massimo Bottura and Lara Gilmore. Surrounded by farmland and filled with contemporary art, it’s a celebration of Italian hospitality with a deeply personal touch.

The lovingly restored 18th century property, acquired by Massimo Bottura and Lara Gilmore, is an intimate country home surrounded by the agricultural landscape of the Emilian countryside. Partners in life, Massimo and Lara have extended their warm hospitality beyond the kitchen of Osteria Francescana to the Country House. Opened in 2019, this special place is not a hotel, it is their home. The Country House features a contemporary art collection consisting of Italian and international artworks, photographs and sculptures. Casa Maria Luigia is the perfect setting to experience the Emilian landscape. Discover the ultimate treasures of the region of Emilia-Romagna right out your doorstep.
