Villa del Balbianello

Villa del Balbianello is a villa in the comune of Lenno, Italy which overlooks Lake Como. The villa was built in 1787 on the site of a monastery. By the end of the 20th century, the villa came under the ownership of the National Trust of Italy. The villa was featured in a number of feature films, including Star Wars: Episode II Attack of the Clones.

The villa was shown as the Lake Retreat where Padmé Amidala and Anakin Skywalker hid while Obi-Wan Kenobi tracked down those responsible for attempting to assassinate Amidala and where the clandestine wedding of Skywalker and Amidala took place.
