La Mortella Gardens

The La Mortella Gardens were created starting in 1958 by Lady Susana Walton , the Argentinian-born wife of the English composer Sir William Walton. The gardens are located on the promontory of Zaro in the municipality of Forio, on the island of Ischia. Today La Mortella belongs to the William Walton and La Mortella Foundation, which takes care of it, administers it, opens it to the public and takes care of cultural activities.
