Willa Rothschild. This place has something to do with our history. The Baroness, daughter of Rothschild, who was the mother of Baron Rothschild, the "well known", was widowed by her husband. She had a dream to build a villa in Cannes in 1881. To do so, she purchased land that spanned more than 30,000 square feet and already included five villas. She hired two of them to accommodate her servants and destroyed the others. Then, she asked architect Charles Baron to build a villa for her, where she could host the guests who came to the various events she regularly organized. Later, this villa went through several hands. Among other things, during World War II, the villa was confiscated by the Nazi forces, who settled their headquarters there. In 1947, the villa was purchased by the Municipality of Cannes and became the municipal library. Around the impressive villa stands an equally impressive garden, which includes a number of tall trees and exotic vegetation. Admission is free. Opening hours: Tuesdays to Saturdays from 9:30 to 18:00. How long should you visit? About half an hour. Address: 1 Avenue Jean de Noailles.
