Villa Lysis, Capri Overview

Villa Lysis, located near the northeastern cliffs of Capri, was built in 1905 by French poet and industrialist Jacques d'Adelswärd-Fersen as a retreat from Parisian society. The villa combines Neoclassical and Art Nouveau architecture and features a grand terrace with stunning views of the Gulf of Naples. Inside, visitors can explore elegant rooms, including a columned atrium and a unique opium-smoking room.

Often referred to as the "Villa of Fersen," Villa Lysis was built in the early 20th century by eccentric poet and dandy Jacques d'Adelswärd-Fersen. The interior showcases a blend of Art Nouveau and classical styles, while the gardens offer a tranquil escape. Additionally, visitors can learn about the fascinating life of Jacques d'Adelswärd-Fersen through informative displays.
