The villa was built by Roman Emperor Hadrian at the foot of the Tiburtine Hills between 118 and 138 AD.

The site included buildings, baths, temples, barracks, theatres, gardens, fountains and nymphaeums. The villa itself was designed on two levels: the upper floor, quiet and welcoming, was reserved for the emperor's official use, while the lower floor was noisy and bustled with the work of slaves.
