Introduction

Donn Anna Villa is a historic building located in Naples, Italy, situated on the waterfront at the end of the Posillipo coast, on the west side of the Mergellina port, in the popular area known as "Rocks of the Siren". Originally named Sirena Villa, it was built by Dragonetto Bonifacio in the early 15th century and later came under the ownership of Anna Stigilano in the 1630s, who changed its name to its current one. In the 1630s, Anna invited architect Cosimo Fanzago to redesign and renovate the building. According to legends surrounding the city of Naples, the villa is associated with tales of murder, sexual revelry, and other scandalous plots involving Queen Joanna I of Naples (1326–1382), the daughter of Charles, and Joanna II.
