And you can understand why the royal family likes it here, the surroundings are fantastically beautiful.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Queen Victoria was, in her time, very involved in the building. She often travelled abroad because of her respiratory problems, including visiting the Swedish doctor Axel Munthe at his villa in Capri. <\/p><div class=\"freed-grupp-stora-banner freed-entity-placement\" id=\"freed-2254283461\"><div class=\"freed-adlabel\">Advertisement<\/div><div id=\"freed-3181542547\" class=\"method-missing not-front type-post not-theme-page\"><a data-no-instant=\"1\" href=\"https:\/\/firstcamp.se\/bra-att-veta\/incheckning-efter-stangning?utm_source=display&#038;utm_medium=Freedom-Travel&#038;utm_campaign=Freedom-Travel-sommar-2026\" rel=\"noopener\" class=\"a2t-link\" target=\"_blank\" aria-label=\"Dropin_freedom_travel_588x280_SE_final\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Dropin_freedom_travel_588x280_SE_final.jpg\" alt=\"\"  srcset=\"https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Dropin_freedom_travel_588x280_SE_final.jpg 588w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Dropin_freedom_travel_588x280_SE_final-300x143.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Dropin_freedom_travel_588x280_SE_final-224x107.jpg 224w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Dropin_freedom_travel_588x280_SE_final-18x9.jpg 18w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Dropin_freedom_travel_588x280_SE_final-433x206.jpg 433w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 588px) 100vw, 588px\" width=\"588\" height=\"280\"   \/><\/a><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">From there she drew a lot of inspiration for her own villa. Axel also helped her acquire Italian architectural details and statues. (And yes, their relationship has sometimes been described as the 'love story of the century', albeit a hushed one.

There are also the so-called Fuchsia Arches, i.e. arches with fuchsias initiated by Queen Silvia.
