With its imposing Arch towering in the center of the wide space, Piazza della Vittoria–named so to celebrate the end of World War I–is one of the hubs of the city center.
15 minutes
2
Basilica di Santa Maria Assunta di Carignano
This building is not only a place of worship but also a symbol of the power and devotion of the noble Genoese families of the Renaissance. Religious architecture here reflected both the faith and the social status of its patrons.
20 minutes
3
La Casa di Colombo
There are some “historical dates” that are fixed in my mind since I was in school. Perhaps THE most memorable date is that of October 12, 1492 when Christopher Columbus, the Genoese explorer who first sailed from Europe to the Americas ! We are going to walk close to his place!
Ticket cost: 3€
20 minutes
4
Porta Soprana
The imposing Porta Soprana! Between 1155 and 1158 the Genoese participated en masse in the construction of the walls to defend themselves from attacks by Frederick Barbarossa’s army.
10 minutes
5
Piazza Raffaele De Ferrari
We have arrived at the nerve center of Genoa, the hub of city life. De Ferrari Square is the city’s main square, a meeting point and venue for major city events.
10 minutes
6
Cattedrale di San Lorenzo - Duomo di Genova
It is impossible not to be captivated by the majesty of its black-and-white striped facade, the bell tower towering over the historic center, and the intricate details that make the building a true architectural masterpiece. This is the Cathedral of San Lorenzo, Genoa’s main church.
20 minutes
7
Piazza San Matteo
Piazza San Matteo is a well-preserved example of an early medieval aristocratic settlement. With its 14th-century church of the same name and surrounded by palaces with characteristic black and white bands, it represented the power center of the Doria family, a tangible sign of their influence in medieval Genoa.
10 minutes
8
Via Giuseppe Garibaldi
Its construction took about 40 years and began thanks to what can be called Europe’s first urban allotment plan, starring one of the richest families in the city, the Grimaldis, who bought the entire area and transformed it into one of the most beautiful and sumptuous areas in Europe.
15 minutes
9
Spianata Castelletto
Genoa is characterized by narrow streets, and getting a view of the city from above is never easy. That is why this Belvedere will leave you speechless!
30 minutes
10
Basilica di San Siro
Located abutting the inner coves of the Porto Vecchio, the church of San Siro has played a key role in Genoa’s religious life for as many as 17 centuries.
20 minutes
11
Basilica della Santissima Annunziata del Vastato
The facade is certainly impressive but in my opinion it is the interior that is jaw-dropping: a must-see when you come to Genova!
20 minutes
12
Porto di Genova
Just think: it has been about 2500 years that this port has been used by sailors! How many people, how many stories have passed through here! We have the amazing Aquarium, the Biosphere, An elevator that will take you up to 40 meters high and so much more to discover!
