The history of the farm is strictly linked to the history of the famous Pisani family from S. Stefano.
In 1807, the Pisani family ceded the luxiourous house in Stra to Napoleon Bonaparte after the fall of Venice. They then moved to Vescovana, in the countryside between Padua and Rovigo, where they concentrated all their economic activities in the vast property.
In the middle of the 19th century, Almorò Pisani III married Evelyne Van Millingen, a young woman with a cosmopolitan formation who was born in Costantinopoli with a French mother and an English father. They set up in Vescovana where Evelyne created, both in the villa and in herself, an atmosphere of aristocratical informality.

The "Doge’s farm" as it was defined by a young female English writer and guest of Evelyne, soon became the seat of an intense cultural life and a holiday house for noblemen and the intellectual of this period. In 1877, the Pisani family built several farms around the Villa; one of them is now the "Le Quattro Rose" farm.
The family extinguished in 1880 and the heirs were "Bentivoglio D'Aragona" as shows the coat-of-arms on the front of the farm-house.
