The Villa des Vergers is a countryside villa in San Lorenzo in Correggiano, a frazione of Rimini, in the region of Emilia-Romagna, northern Italy.[1][2] Dating to the 17th century,[1][3] the villa was purchased by Adolphe Noël des Vergers in 1843,[1][4] and substantially redesigned in 1879 by Arthur-Stanislas Diet.[3] Between 1938 and 1946, it was owned by Mario Ruspoli, 2nd Prince of Poggio Suasa,[1] who employed Pietro Porcinai to design the villa's gardens.[1][5] The villa was used as a military headquarters by German forces in the Second World War,[3][6] and has since been owned by a series of local entrepreneurs.[3][7]

Since 2021, the villa has hosted civil wedding ceremonies.[8][9] It is also used for corporate events.[10]
