What To Expect

Villa & Jardins Ephrussi de Rothschild
By birth and then by marriage, Madame Beatrice Ephrussi, daughter of the famous banker Baron Alphonse de Rotschild, was to become one of the greatest collectors of her century. For the construction of the Villa between 1907 and 1912, she added the talents of all the experts and merchants, friends of the family ...Béatrice's father died in 1905 and the Baroness inherited his immense fortune. That same year, she decided to construct her dream home in Cap Ferrat. When she first discovered this plot of land, she was immediately seduced by the beauty of the surroundings. She made the Villa her winter residence and came here regularly for a period of ten or so years, till she retired in Switzerland because of tuberculosis where she passed away. Later The Académie des Beaux-Arts entrusted the management of the site to Culture spaces, which redeveloped the splendid gardens, respecting the original plan designed by Louis Marchand and restoring the Villa’s interior.
