About Genoa
Genoa's museums live inside the city's own history — a Renaissance admiral's palace, a submarine moored beside the harbour, marble tombs carved for its merchant dynasties. Start with the Genoa: Galata Maritime Museum & Nazario Sauro Submarine - Maritime History & Views, where the republic's seafaring past is told aboard a real vessel, then step into aristocratic Genoa at the Genoa: Villa del Principe Museum Ticket, the Doria family's frescoed residence.

Frequently asked questions
Genoa's collections sit inside the buildings and sites that made the city: the Galata Maritime Museum occupies the old port area beside the Nazario Sauro submarine, Villa del Principe is a working Renaissance palace with its original frescoes, and Staglieno Cemetery is an open-air sculpture gallery of Genoese merchant tombs.
