Tivoli Revealed: A Journey Through Villas, Sanctuaries, and Timeless Beauty

This webinar explores four of Tivoli’s most remarkable sites—where history, art, and nature converge. We begin with Hadrian’s Villa, the emperor’s grand estate, inspired by the wonders of the Roman Empire. Then to Villa d’Este, a Renaissance masterpiece where terraced gardens and ingenious fountains express both engineering brilliance and artistic vision. Beyond these icons, we highlight two lesser-known gems: Villa Gregoriana, a dramatic 19th-century park of waterfalls, cliffs, and ancient ruins evoking Romantic sensibilities; and the Sanctuary of Hercules Victor, one of ancient Latium’s most imposing sacred complexes. Together, these sites reveal Tivoli as a place where successive generations shaped the landscape to reflect power, spirituality, and the enduring dialogue between man and nature.
