Villa Rufolo

GiardinoVilla RufoloMedieval Rufolo complex, Arab-Byzantine-Norman architecture, terraced gardens, Wagner and Parsifal, Ravello FestivalVilla Rufolo was built in the thirteenth century for the Rufolo family, Ravello's merchant dynasty grown rich on trade with North Africa and the Levant, and its cloister and tower still mix Arab, Byzantine and Norman details in a way found almost nowhere else on the Amalfi Coast. By the nineteenth century the complex had fallen into decline until the Scottish botanist Francis Neville Reid bought it and laid out the terraced gardens that now step down toward the sea. Richard Wagner visited in May 1880 while composing Parsifal and reportedly found the garden he had been imagining for the opera's Klingsor already built, a connection the town celebrates still. That link led directly to the first Ravello Festival concerts, staged on the same terrace in 1953 and still running every summer, with the coastline and the Gulf of Salerno as a backdrop no concert hall can match.Pianifica la visita

GiardinoVilla CimbroneTerrace of Infinity, marble busts over the void, Bloomsbury connections, rose gardensVilla Cimbrone has stood on this Ravello ridge since the Middle Ages, but its gardens are the work of a Victorian: the English aristocrat Ernest Beckett, who bought the run-down estate in 1904 and shaped it into a Romantic landscape of terraces, temples and shady walks. The reason everyone comes is the Terrace of Infinity, a belvedere lined with marble busts that seem to float above 350 meters of open air, the Gulf of Salerno spread out below. The property was a retreat for writers and artists, with Bloomsbury connections, and part of it is now a hotel. It lies within the UNESCO-listed Amalfi Coast rather than being separately inscribed.
