Giardino Villa Grock, Garden and children's museum in Imperia, Italy.
The Villa Grock features an Art Deco architectural design with a central fish pond, temple structures, and decorative elements inspired by circus arts.
Built between 1927 and 1930, the villa was the residence of Swiss circus performer Charles Adrien Wettach, known professionally as Grock, until his death in 1959.
The Museum of the Clown, established in 2013, presents interactive exhibits about circus arts and preserves the legacy of Grock's performances.
The property opens six days per week with different morning and afternoon schedules, offering guided tours and special rates for students, seniors, and groups.
Throughout the garden, architectural elements incorporate circus motifs, including juggling instruments, stars, and spiral patterns representing infinity.
