Tarot Garden in Capalbio, Tuscany

Have you chosen to spend your holiday in Tuscany and stay in one of our villas for rent in Maremma?

Then you can not miss a visit to the Tarot Garden, the famous art park on the hill of Garavicchio, near Capalbio, realized by the French American versatile artist Niki de Saint Phalle.

The park, a real open-air museum, consists of 22 impressive statues 12mt and 15 mt high based on the tarots cards that are all made of steel and cement, decorated with glass, mirrors and colorful ceramics.

The beautiful project of the Tarot Garden started in the late 1979 and ended in 1998 under the influence of Parc Guell made by the artist Gaudì and the italian Garden of Bomarzo.

The park is open from April to December in specific time slots: as the artist has wanted, the audience is free to visit the Garden and enjoy the magic of the place without any tour guide.

The Tarot Garden, which lives thanks to the public donations, is currently managed and maintained by the same foundation.

So, if your next trip will be into the Maremma area, take advantage of the several villas for rent in Tuscany by Dolce Vita Villas!
