Chapelle Bellini

Nestled within the old Villa Fiorentina estate in Cannes, Chapelle Bellini stands as a testament to 19th-century Italianate architecture, surrounded by Tuscan terraced gardens. Originally a Baroque chapel built by Count Phillippe Vitali, it was transformed into an artist’s studio in the 1950s by Emmanuel Bellini, a local painter and architect. Following his passing, Bellini’s daughter repurposed the space into a museum, showcasing her father’s artistic legacy. Today, visitors can explore the chapel’s rich history and admire the works of Emmanuel Bellini, set against the backdrop of the villa’s lush, terraced surroundings.
