The Villa Aurora, a historic estate in Rome, faced ownership disputes following the death of its last owner, Prince Nicolo Boncompagni Ludovisi, in 2018. His second wife, Rita Boncompagni Ludovisi, lived there amidst ongoing court battles with her stepsons, who contested the will. Despite multiple sale attempts at varying prices, there were no buyers, leading to her eviction in 2023. Eventually, a settlement was reached, and the villa is expected to be sold privately, possibly as a museum, coinciding with the highly anticipated Caravaggio exhibition in 2025.
The ongoing saga of Villa Aurora's ownership might finally reach resolution, with plans underway for its private sale and potential transformation into a museum.
The complex history includes legal disputes and failed sales attempts, culminating in the eviction of Rita Boncompagni Ludovisi, who once lived there.
Despite numerous court-mandated sales that didn't attract any buyers, a new deal appears to be in the works, potentially allowing public access to the villa.
The Villa Aurora will be opened to the public in 2025, coinciding with the Caravaggio exhibition, marking a significant milestone for this historic site.
