The Cap Ferrat peninsula on the French Riviera was the location chosen by Baroness Beatriz Ephrussi de Rothschild to carry out her dream of building a site to host her great collection of works of art and furniture.

She chose a 7 Ha plot of land, disputed by Leopold II of Belgium, in the highest and narrowest stretch of the cape, where in 1905 she built a palace in the purest style of Italian Renaissance villas.

The luxury of its rooms, full of paintings, sculptures and porcelain, was completed with a wonderful view over the sea and an exotic garden composed of 9 different styles (French, Spanish, Japanese, lapidary, exotic, Florentine…), very fashionable at the time and which served as a reminder of the Baroness many travels around the world.

Upon her death in 1934, the property and 5300 works from her art collection were incorporated into the French Institute’s Academy of Fine Arts in order to create, following the Baroness’ instructions, a museum with the appearance of hall. The villa-museum is currently run by the group Culture Espace and receives more than 150,000 visitors a year.
