For the first time, Rolli Days in Genoa lasts for a week! Unique opportunity

An opportunity not to be missed: for the first time in their history, Genoa’s Rolli Days, the event that opens the doors of the city’s historic palaces, will not last for a weekend as per tradition, but even a full and consecutive week, from October 4 to 10. This unique opportunity (since many palaces are still used as offices, company headquarters, private spaces) is made possible by the collaboration with Genoa Shipping Week: in fact, the main event of Mediterranean shipping will be hosted in Genoa’s historic palaces and, on the same days, these will be opened free of charge to the public of citizens, visitors and tourists.

A seven-day program of live visits, which will take place in full compliance with COVID regulations, upon reservation and presentation of valid Green Pass. At least four palaces per day will be involved on Monday through Friday in rotation, which will be accessible by online reservation and will see the public led to the visit of the interiors by the Scientific Divulgators, a trademark of the quality (also related to the education of young people) of the events related to the Palazzi dei Rolli.

The week will culminate at the weekend with the autumn Rolli Days: more than 30 palaces, villas and monumental sites will transport the public to the atmosphere of the century of the Genoese, when the city of Genoa held European kingdoms in its grip with the activities of its unscrupulous and highly skilled financiers. More than 60 Scientific Disclosers, young professionals under 40 trained ad hoc and paid to be the exceptional mediators between the public and the historical, artistic and cultural heritage of the city, will be involved in this extraordinary project of openings, which will involve not only the palaces of Via Garibaldi, Via Balbi and the Genoese historic center but also Palazzo San Giorgio, the villas of Cornigliano and Voltri and other extraordinary sites. A week of wonders to be experienced at your own pace, safely and guided by the expertise of professionals, discovering the beauty of one of the queen cities of the Mediterranean.

All information for accessing the compulsory booking of visits to the sites will be available from the end of September at www.visitgenoa.it, while a rich array of top-quality video content on Genoa’s palaces, villas, churches, and artists is always available at https://www.visitgenoa.it/rollidays-online/.
