Pleasant, pleasant and quiet place. The main structure is the scene of very interesting jazz and classical music concerts as well as photographic exhibitions by international authors on the upper floor.

Well, here I would have a lot to say and everything positive, but I think I would not stop, I will only say that, for those who love history, art and beauty in the purest sense of the word, they will cry as I cried in front of an amazing spectacle of the past. I'll be back for sure

Spectacular location! I was there on the occasion of the opening of May of music and I must be honest I was really surprised to discover this place. I hope to come back for some events (normally if I'm not mistaken it should be closed to the public)

A villa given to the state in 1955 by princess Pignatelli. Inside you can visit some rooms richly furnished and maintained as then. In addition to the villa there is a garden with plants of all kinds, some species of bird and a valuable collection of carriages and harnesses. All very well preserved

A beautiful surprise ... very good advice from the manager of the b & b luxury apartements ... a location a little 'trasansata, but very interesting and suggestive. We then met a very good and nice guide who made the visit even more appealing. Not to be missed for those who decide to visit the beautiful Naples!

Very nice the building with the different rooms to visit inside, the back garden should be more cared for.
The museum of carriages is very interesting, various carriages of the time are exhibited, and in another area there are also various components of the carriages associated with a description of their characteristics.

Beautiful nineteenth-century villa of the Pignatelli family. Inside wonderful rooms with frescoes that leave you open-mouthed to say nothing of the furniture and objects of the time. The garage with fifteen vintage carriages is fabulous. A must see

Perhaps not everyone knows that in these rooms some scenes of the "Fabulous Young Man" have been shot, so the Villa stands as a stage for a possible tour in the footsteps of Leopardi.A few meters in fact the tomb that Ranieri erected for his great friend and poet died in Torre del Greco, at Villa delle Ginestre.

The Chiaia Riviera in Naples, hosts Villa Pignatelli, the seat of the Diego Aragona Pignatelli Cortes Museum, which displays the exceptional value and exquisite craftsmanship left to the Italian state.
Erected in the early nineteenth century in neoclassical style for an English nobleman changed hands several times to those of Prince Pignatelli and then to the state.
During the period when he was the property of the Marquis von Rothschild, he built a building that takes its name from him and which houses the museum of the carriage that also extends to the old stables.
The various buildings are located in a beautiful and well-kept park.
It is certainly one of the most precious jewels of Naples.

To get an idea of what Naples was like between the two kingdoms it is necessary to dedicate a careful visit. It is certainly worth it, even for the enchanting view of the center of Naples! NOT TO BE MISSED!

I've been to the pignatelli museum for the. Culinary demonstration food to perfection, well as a manifestation is not to say, I already know it, as an organization I did not really like it, in the sense that the security did not allow to return to the same part in which one had to leave the structure every time a course or a master class ended. It made no sense, also because someone like me who had booked several courses, had to go out and return to finish in the same place and return to the same room? It did not make much sense, in fact, but unfortunately so it had been decided. Then you had to take a huge ride back, a mess. Next time, all these limitations do not put them on, you do not need them. For the rest, I met many professionals in this sector thanks to this event, but maybe the next time less stress, who is already inside must stay inside and not go out and then go back to go for more courses. It does not make sense. An applause to Mrs. frenda for organizing this beautiful event in such an elegant museum. Excellent professionals and wonderful courses.
