It is characterized by beautifully painted facades, and in the past housed one of the world's oldest banks.

The colorful frescoes adorning the facade of this extraordinary palace immediately catch the eye, telling ancient stories of sea voyages and the wealth of Genoa. Standing on the edge of the port, this historic building, once a bank and a prison, still bustles with life today as the seat of the port authorities. Feel the sea breeze and immerse yourself in the atmosphere of a place that for centuries witnessed the power and trade of the republic. It's a living piece of history that still connects the city with the sea.
