Giardino di Tivoli, 19th century museum in Florence, Italy
The museum complex incorporates small chalets, recreational areas, and walking paths spread across the grounds between Porta Romana and Piazzale Galileo.
The Giardino di Tivoli opened its doors in 1871, following a two-year construction period that began in 1869 during Florence's period as capital.
The museum represented an early attempt to establish a recreational space in Florence, though entrance fees proved unpopular among local residents.
Two remaining structures with scaffolding near the Bobolino area mark the former entrance to the gardens, which underwent restoration work in 2016.
While the original garden no longer exists, its memory lives on through Via di Tivoli, a street that runs through the former grounds.
