All in Genoa
Calling all wannabe sailors and aspiring sea captains. The Galata Museo del Mare in Genoa offers 12,000 m2 of exhibition space covering man's longtime relationship with the sea. The building itself is the oldest surviving construction in the dockyard of the old Republic. It's a worthwhile attraction for anyone interested in the ocean, immigration, and the history of Genoa.
The Museum of Genoa, located in the Palazzina San Giobatta in the heart of Genoa's Old Port, is dedicated to the history of Genoa Cricket and Football Club, the oldest in Italy.
Not far from Porta Soprana, just outside the ancient medieval walls, is the Casa di Colombo, where the discoverer of the Americas lived in his youth.
Combine Genoa favorites. Some things are better together.
