The name of Villa Ca' Dotta means: "The House of the Dotto".
The Dotto were nobles belonging to a wealthy family from Padua, who inherited land from another important Vicentine family, the Proti. It was the Dotto who later erected the Sunday house in this pleasant location, which was given the name Ca' Dotta.
After several changes in ownership, Villa Ca' Dotta began to fall into disuse, until the last owner decided to donate it to the Municipality of Sarcedo, hoping for a renovation that would make the building available for public use for socio-health purposes.
The Municipality of Sarcedo decided to renovate the villa, also thanks to public funding, to then allocate it for the intended use by the donor. Given the difficulty of repurposing the building, due to structural reasons, the Municipality, ULSS 7, and the Veneto Region initiated another project: Ca' Dotta became a place for the predominantly school-aged population, to promote healthy lifestyles in an "original" way.
