The Museum Correale, this valuable bulwark of
Sorrento art and culture, has often been defined
"the most beautiful province museum of Italy". It
is situated in an ancient patrician villa,
surrounded by a citrus grove that looks onto the
tuff ridge just in front of the Gulf of Naples.
The villa and the citrus grove, as well as the
wonderful terrace of Belvedere, are part of a
donation to the town of Sorrento by the brothers
Pompeo and Alfredo Correale, the last descendants
of the ancient patrician family. The Museums
collections are arranged on three floors for a
total of twenty-four halls, to which has been
added the garret recovered as an expository room

The Museum keeps one of the most beautiful
collections of Neapolitan painters dating from
the seventeenth and eighteenth century, some
works of the famous "School of Posillipo" and by
some masters of the Flemish and French schools
dating from the same period.
A special mention deserves the collection
of Sorrento inlaid works dating from the
nineteenth century, rich in tables, furnishings
and finely inlaid jewel cases. The poet and
cabinet - maker Salvatore Gargiulo (Saltovar),
from Sorrento, donated many of these pieces to
the Museum

The family Correale was native of Scala, an
ancient town situated in front of Ravello and,
from historical data available in some documents
as early as 1268, we know that they were part of
the "Sedile" (ancient nobles associations) of
Porta in Sorrento, of Portaretese in Salerno, of
Porto in Naples. The brothers Correale therefore
put at Sorrento communitys disposal the villa
belonged to their family, for housing the art
collections gathered in their numerous travels
all over Europe
