Having sold the Bisentina island, the del Drago family gave it to the Rottapharm pharmaceutical foundation

It would be the Rottapharm pharmaceutical foundation, even if the contract would not have been finalised. Founded by will of the university professor Louis Rovati e poi acquistata dall’azienda svedese Meda. L’isola è stata per circa due secoli nelle proprietà della famiglia del Drago, ultimo proprietario della famiglia sembra dunque essere la principessa Angelica.

Sale of the Bisentina, the deal would seem to be closed. Last April, La Fune, relaunching an important interview conducted by Radiogiornale (the Bolsena Lake newspaper) spoke of an Italian foundation interested in purchasing.

To be exact, it was Prince Ferdinando Del Drago himself, heir to Prince Giovanni, who affirmed: “It's true, the island has been put up for sale. An Italian foundation is interested in buying”.

It would be the Rottapharm pharmaceutical foundation, even if the contract would not have been finalised. Founded by the will of the university professor Luigi Rovati and then purchased by the Swedish company Meda. The island was for about two centuries in the properties of the Drago family, the last owner of the family therefore seems to be Princess Angelica.

Again from rumors, there is talk of a figure between five and seven million euros.
