Villa Jovis, Capri Overview

Villa Jovis, perched atop the rugged cliffs of Capri, Italy, boasts a spectacular location offering breathtaking views of the Tyrrhenian Sea. The site is renowned not only for its architectural significance but also for the captivating tales of Tiberius's eccentric rule.

Built by the Roman Emperor Tiberius in the 1st century AD, this historic villa served as his secluded retreat. Its strategic hilltop location allowed Tiberius to govern the Roman Empire from a distance, earning it the moniker "Villa of Jupiter" (Villa Jovis). Begin by exploring the well-preserved ruins, witnessing the imperial chambers and panoramic terraces. It's advisable to wear comfortable shoes for navigating the uneven terrain. To avoid crowds, mornings are the ideal time to visit.
