Villa Kérylos
This villa with views of the Mediterranean was commissioned during the Belle Époque by humanist, archaeologist and deputy Théodore Reinach. He aspired to an original reconstitution of a Greek palace including the modern comfort of his time. Against the eclecticism of the time, this unique monument evokes the 2nd-century Greek houses.

Programme
ARMAN - Archaeology of the present
Among the permanent collections, graphic works, bronzes and resins by one of the greatest representatives of the Ecole de Nice will be presented from an unprecedented angle. The sculptor's work will be confronted with the spirit of the place. The many references to Antiquity, revisited by the artist as much as by the designers of the Villa Kérylos, will also underline the monument's great modernity.
