The Labyrinth also represents one of the earliest interventions carried out by Frigimelica within the grounds of Villa Pisani. Documentation dates the construction of the turret to 1721. Originally created with hornbeam hedges, replaced in the twentieth century with shaped boxwood plants, it is designed as a space in which to lose and find oneself, exposed—as in life—to the risk of taking secondary paths, but also to the opportunity of living “with Reason,” as illustrated by the beautiful statue of Minerva at the top of the turret.

This latter cylindrical structure defines a hollow space within, visible while ascending via two curved staircases; from its summit, it offers visitors the chance to take in the entire system of primary and secondary paths organized in nine concentric circles.

The fascinating green architecture of the Villa Pisani Labyrinth also struck Francesco Guardi, among others, who chose to immortalize it in a masterful pen drawing now held in the graphic collections of the Museo Correr in Venice.
