Will the Italian mansion soon become a museum?

The private life of the three-time Italian Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi was anything but modest. The billionaire's infamous "bunga bunga" sex parties caused a real scandal in Europe when they were revealed. The term "bunga bunga" became common knowledge in 2010 when news leaked that Berlusconi hosted parties at his private villa in Arcore.

These allegedly include inappropriate, sometimes illegal, treatment of young girls. As a result, Berlusconi will be accused of paying for sex with an underage prostitute and abuse of position, and despite the aforementioned scandal, Berlusconi has remained an important figure in the Italian political space.

The hedonistic soirées, which eventually attracted the attention of the Italian Ministry of Justice, took place at Berlusconi's lavish San Martino villa near Milan. Apparently, the public will soon get a chance to glimpse the glittering mansion with a notorious reputation. After Berlusconi's death, at the age of 86, the former Italian politician left the decision on the future of the villa to his family. She is said to be in favor of the idea of opening a museum.

Manor of San Martino otherwise, it is a feast for the eyes in itself. The 70 rooms are decorated with priceless works of art signed by famous artists. Among other things Rembrandt and hundreds of portraits of media mogul Berlusconi. He also had a marble mausoleum built in the garden, where his ashes are currently kept. Inside the mansion is also a huge library equipped with biographies of world leaders. Including Margaret Thatcher, and a collection of gifts from political friends such as Muammar Gaddafi.
