About
The European Union's founding document was written on an island where women were once banished by Roman emperors.
This small island has a long, politically charged past. It has hosted a range of people during its many years of human history, from exiled Roman women to the men who penned a document that inspired the European Union. As a punishment for his daughter's adultery, Emperor Augustus banished Julia the Elder to this villa, which was originally built during Roman times.
