Villa d'Este | The most famous water organ of the 16th century was at the Villa d'Este in Tivoli. ..., it stood about six metres high under an arch, and was fed by a magnificent waterfall. ... There are still traces of the instrument at the Villa d'Este but the mineral-rich water of the river which cascades through the organ grotto has caused accretions which have hidden most of the evidence from view.
