The Islands of Gaiola locally referred to as ‘Isola della Gaiola’ have a panoramic and serene look. It is believed to be built in the 1920s and owned by Hans Braun. The Island is located in Naples Italy and has a dark history to it. It is believed that the island is doomed as the owners of the sole villa located on this island have experienced misfortunes or have met with unnatural deaths. Today this mysterious villa lies abandoned. There is one interesting aspect of the islands, the bridge that connects the two islands and is a point of attraction for visitors. The Bridge is referred to as the Gaiola Bridge and is interesting but as mysterious as the villa.
