Genoa

liguriahotel

genoaGenoa was in the Middle Ages a powerful republic maritime, competing with Pisa and Venice for the control of the trade in the Mediterranean, more particularly in the East. She played a big role at the time of the Christian crusades, providing ships and supply.

Its port kept an intense activity throughout its history.
The district of the port is a tangle of medieval streets, it remains some strengthened doors and among its monuments, let us note especially its splendid cathedral San Lorenzo.
