At the heart of Genoa’s historic center, Via Garibaldi unfolds like an open-air museum — a Renaissance masterpiece lined with the magnificent Palazzi dei Rolli. Once noble residences selected by the Republic of Genoa to host princes, ambassadors, and royalty, these palaces now form a UNESCO World Heritage Site that embodies the city’s former glory. Walking along Via Garibaldi is like stepping back into the 16th century — where frescoed ceilings, marble façades, and grand courtyards tell stories of wealth, power, and timeless beauty.
