Giardino Villa Grock, Garden and children's museum in Imperia, Italy.
Giardino Villa Grock is a property with Art Deco architecture and elements celebrating circus life. The grounds feature a central fish pond, small temple structures, and decorative features reflecting acrobatics and artistic performance.
The property was built between 1927 and 1930 as the residence of a famous Swiss circus performer. The owner lived there until his death in 1959, leaving behind a legacy that is now open to visitors.
The place honors the legacy of a Swiss circus performer through interactive exhibits and objects from his career. Visitors can see props and personal items that document his performances and life.
The location opens several days per week with both morning and afternoon hours available. Guides on site help visitors explore the collections and garden, and special rates are offered for children, seniors, and groups.
The garden is decorated throughout with symbols of circus life, from juggling objects to stars and spirals. These artistic details turn every corner of the grounds into a celebration of performance art and entertainment.
