Museo napoleonico Palazzina dei Mulini, Napoleon Museum in Portoferraio, Italy.

The Palazzina dei Mulini stands on a promontory overlooking the port of Portoferraio, featuring grand rooms arranged across multiple levels of the residence.

Built in 1724 by Grand Duke Gian Gastone de Medici, the villa underwent modifications under Napoleon's direction during his exile from May 1814 to February 1815.

The museum displays period furniture, a portion of Napoleon's personal library containing works by Voltaire, La Fontaine, and Plutarch, along with Imperial-style decorations.

The museum limits visits to 30 people at once, opening Wednesday, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday mornings, plus Monday and Thursday afternoons, with tickets at 5 euros.

The garden between the building and the sea contains an ancient Greek statue of Minerva and a reproduction of Canova's Galatea statue.
