Known as the "house of the sun" thanks to a ceramic bas-relief by Carlo Sbisà, it portrays the vibrant passage of hours throughout the day. Built in the early 1900s and renovated in the 1950s by the Gruber Benco family—Triestine intellectuals and writers—the villa still exudes their unmistakable artistic and cultural charm.
