Why go
A vividly painted harbor palace embodies Genoa's commercial power and the long history of the Bank of Saint George. At Palazzo San Giorgio, compare the frescoed seaward facade facing the old port with the medieval core embedded within later civic additions.
What to look for
- The frescoed seaward facade facing the old port
- The medieval core embedded within later civic additions
