The Blue Grotto owes its name to the characteristic blue tonality of water, due to the external light that filters through a narrow opening. In Roman times it was the nymphaeum of a villa that has disappeared today. Forgotten for centuries, it was only rediscovered in 1826 by the German artist August Kopisch.
