SOCIAL DINNER, Wednesday September 6, 20:00 - Terrazze di Palazzo Ducale

 

Social dinner at Le Terrazze del Ducale, on the terrace of Palazzo Ducale, offering a spectacular aerial view of Genova old center.

Palazzo Ducale, which was regarded as the seat of power of the Republic and the Doge's residence, was built during the flourishing period of the Republican history of the city (13th-14th centuries). The medieval structure however disappeared with the works carried out during the 16th century; the Palace acquired a new appearance which would represent more fittingly the new oligarchic Republic. 

Address: Palazzo Ducale - Piazza Giacomo Matteotti, 9, 16123 Genova GE
