History
The Villa was originally a part of the Van Duzer estate. The estate was comprised of forty-eight acres along with the mansion. In 1913 the Dominican sisters purchased the estate and later, in 1955, Mount saint Mary College used the Rosenhof house when the college became an accredited junior college. The house was then renamed The Villa Madonna and is now commonly known as The Villa. The Villa remained as the primary setting for classes up until 1963 when Aquinas Hall was opened.
