Historic House Museum of Galileo Chini, Art Nouveau house museum in Lido di Camaiore, Italy
The Historic House Museum of Galileo Chini is an Art Nouveau villa in Lido di Camaiore that preserves original furnishings, artworks, and decorative details throughout its rooms. The spaces display paintings and ceramics that record Chini's artistic practice and design choices during his lifetime.
Chini built the villa in 1914 after returning from Thailand, where he had created decorative works for the Bangkok Palace. The residence became his favored summer home and continued to serve as a place for his artistic work.
The house reveals how Chini displayed his artistic interests throughout its rooms, where paintings, ceramics, and decorative objects remain on view. The spaces show a creator who filled his home with works that reflected his passion for craft and beauty.
The museum is located at Via Roma Capitale 265 in Lido di Camaiore and opens seasonally from April through October. Plan your visit around the opening season and check specific visiting hours before arrival.
The villa blends European Art Nouveau with Oriental elements that Chini brought back from his years in Thailand. This mixture of styles creates an unusual look in the rooms that shows influences from both traditions.
