    Once the home of the Doges of Genoa, it is now a museum and a centre for cultural events and arts exhibitions. It is situated in the heart of the city, with two different entrances and façades, the main one on Piazza Matteotti, and the second one on Piazza De Ferrari.

    this palace has a free to enter hall with a few really good cafes where you can eat lunch and have breakfast. Usually there's art exhibitions here, so if you're interested you can check it out!

    Beautiful historic building in the centre of Genova. We visited the Picasso exhibition, if I'm honest I preferred the building to the exhibition.

    The palace of Doges was the princes of Genova palace. Its origins go back to XIII century,built above the remains of a few Doria family personal houses. It was totally refurbished during the last few decades and now it is the main exhibition & public conferences location for Genova. Genova is the book capital of Italy for 2023/2024 and the Palazzo Ducale hosts most of the public meeting with writers from all over the world. Worthy a visit indeed.

    I didn’t see much because my visit was pretty short but there’s was this really cool big room that I don’t know how would you call it. It was impressive.

    When in Genova, you need to see the Doge's palaces that are open to the public. You will also need time to do so. We actually ran out so couldn't completely see everything. The opulance, the grandeur is quite incredible and worth the visit.

    Most of the Doge Palace was closed. We saw two temporary exhibitions, instead. One of them included the exquisite chapel.

    An interestin gexhibition on Artemisia Gentileschi, XVII century painter and her story. Worth seeing. It will be there until March 2024. Also don't miss the permanent exhibition, free, on Emanuele Luzzati, graphic artist: absolutely not to miss!!!

    A real Doge's Palace, with several exhibitions on at any one time. Right in the city centre and well worth a visit.

    This is a beautiful palace specially the lobby. I also had the chance to enjoy the interior garden. Even more interesting that the palace are the art exhibiyions. F.I. There was a Van Gogh exposition when i visited the palace. So check the activities before hoing.

    Gorgeous place. We enjoyed it without a guide, exploring on our own. But it would also be great to hear some details, secrets, legends about the palace with a knowing person. There was a flea market there at the weekend.
