Villa Regina Margherita

Villa Regina Margherita is an art museum in Bordighera that spans multiple levels with works from a private collection on display. The building includes basement rooms, ground floor, two upper stories, and a terrace arranged as exhibition spaces.

The villa was commissioned in 1914 and completed in 1915, built according to designs by a renowned Italian architect for a member of the Savoy family. The building represents an important example of the architecture from that era in the region.

The house was once a queen's winter residence and displays symbols of the Italian royal family throughout its rooms. These details appear especially in the stained glass windows and interior decorations.

Visitors can move through the villa at their own pace since rooms are spread across multiple levels and areas. Amenities on-site include a cloakroom, bookstore, and cafe for your convenience.

The art collection was originally owned privately by a Milanese businessman before becoming a public museum. A special feature is the handcrafted stained glass windows that were specially designed for this villa by a noted artist.
