Villa Vittorio Emanuele, Public garden in Caltagirone, Italy.
Villa Vittorio Emanuele extends across 7 hectares of landscaped grounds, featuring diverse vegetation including holm oaks, linden trees, pines, and cypress trees.
The garden was established in 1846 as Villa Real Principessa Maria delle Grazie Pia, with architect Giovan Battista Filippo Basile later expanding the design.
The garden incorporates local artistry through terracotta vases, Sicilian majolica, and Caltagirone ceramics displayed along tree-lined pathways.
The main entrance is located on Via Roma, 500 meters from the historic center, with additional access points from Viale Principessa Maria José.
A Moorish-style bandstand stands in the central square, while the garden houses a statue of Cerere and the International Museum of the Nativity Scene.
