Built in the 1720’s with a fresco of shells and stalactites from nearby caves.
It was all quite surreal.

"The word Rococo is a combination of the French rocaille, meaning stone, and coquilles, meaning shell, due to reliance on these objects as motifs of decoration.
The beginning of the end for Rococo came in the early 1760s as figures like Voltaire and Jacques-François Blondel began to voice their criticism of the superficiality and degeneracy of the art. Blondel decried the ‘ridiculous jumble of shells, dragons, reeds, palm-trees and plants’ in contemporary interiors." (wikipedia)
