Villa Aguet, 19th-century residence in San Felice Circeo, Italy.

Villa Aguet is a three-story residence positioned on the Circeo promontory with spacious loggias overlooking the Tyrrhenian Sea. The property includes a private park and represents the architectural style typical of its era in this region.

The residence was built in the 1800s when Prince Stanislaus Poniatowski governed San Felice Circeo and commissioned its construction. It later became the property of Swiss businessman Baron James Aguet, marking a change in ownership.

The villa displays architectural styles from the 1800s that connect to local building traditions of the Circeo area. You can see how the design reflects the way people built homes to work with the Mediterranean landscape.

The villa stands on the slopes of the Circeo promontory, a short distance from the historic centre of San Felice Circeo, so it is reached on foot from the town. The building and its vast park are private property, visible from outside along the lanes climbing the slope toward the sea-facing side.

The villa's name comes from Baron James Aguet, a Swiss businessman and nobleman who acquired the property after Prince Stanislaus Poniatowski. Before that it was called Villa Poniatowski, after the Polish prince who had it built while he held the fief of San Felice Circeo.
