Guided Interpretive Tours will resume in June 2026

Dates and booking TBA

Hear the fascinating story of the Caetani family told by one of our Interpreters while exploring select displays of treasured family artifacts in the heritage home. See haute couture, home movies and a selection of Sveva Caetani’s artwork.

Discover the intriguing story and legacy of the Caetani family, descendants of Italian royalty. The mysterious and heartbreaking story behind the history of the house and its inhabitants provides a gateway to understanding our recent past, and opens a window to a much different world, shedding light on the many artworks and writings created by our benefactor Sveva Caetani.

Learn why Leone Caetani, an Italian prince and duke, left his royal titles and family fortune behind to move to Vernon, British Columbia, with his young family.

Find out why Sveva and her mother, Ofelia, later went into seclusion in their home for 25 years.

Sveva Caetani’s Recapitulation, the watercolour series that recalls her life journey, has recently returned from an exhibition in Rome.

The new exhibit, Sveva Caetani: Her Life and Art, featuring a selection of paintings from Recapitulation, is now open in the Caetani gallery from April to September, 2026.

Visit our gift shop for Caetani-related books, Sveva Caetani prints, cards, T-shirts and totes, and locally-made art by Caetani studio artists and others.
