Tours / Enrico Caruso's Villa, the Myth of the Napolitan Song

Villa Caruso is a Renaissance Villa, built by the family Pucci and last home of the tenor Enrico Caruso, who bought it in 1906 and lived here untill his death in 1921.

The Villa has a beautiful, monumental Park of eight hectares with Baroque’s statues, an Italian garden and olives groves.

Inside the Villa we will visit the Museum dedicated to Enrico Caruso, which displays an extraordinary collection of mementos and relics of the artist.

Enrico Caruso was one of the greatest opera performers ever. A set of fortunate circumstances and right people beside him have allowed the future tenor to emerge in all its grandeur, giving the magic of his voice to contemporaries and subsequent generations. In addition to his singing skills, Caruso distinguished himself for his ability to exploit the "new technologies" of the time, becoming the first artist in history to record his songs on vinyl records, This allowed him to increase exponentially his public and quickly made him famous all over the world.

Our guided tour of the Museum and the Park of Villa Caruso is a real tour to explore the home of one of the most famous Italians in the world.

The tour of the park is a journey through the transformations that occurred at the time that the magnificent ancient statues were discovered.

The Museum will offer the souvenir of insight into the life of a great artist and his unique voice.
