Communication Centre Villa Alba

The beautiful and classical Villa Alba in Gardone Riviera, Italy, was built on behalf of Emperor Frans-Jozef I of Austria. However he has never stayed there.
During the period of the "Republic of Saló" the estate was being used as a communications transmission centre: all orders from Berlin were transmitted to this place.
