Palazzo Rosso is set in the extraordinary setting of via Garibaldi in Genoa, the magnificent Renaissance and Baroque Strada Nuova declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

Here is located an original museum itinerary that connects three important Genoese palaces: Palazzo Rosso, Palazzo Bianco and Palazzo Doria Tursi.

At Palazzo Rosso, a noble residence adorned with frescoes by the greatest painters of the Genoese Seicento and precious furnishings, there is a rich art collection that includes paintings collected over more than two centuries by the noble Brignole-Sale family.

Among the artists exhibited in the gallery of the aristocratic Genoese palace: Dürer, Veronese, Guercino, Strozzi, Grechetto, Van Dyck, and many others.

The magnificent art collection that, together with the furnishings and Palazzo Rosso, the Duchess of Galliera donated to the Municipality of Genoa in 1874 had been consciously formed by the Brignole-Sale family through a wise policy of acquisitions and commissions, deployed for over two centuries, as a seal of social, economic, and political ascent.
