The Museoteatro della Commenda di Pre in Genoa.
Walking from Principe station to the Porto Antico there are at least three streets you can take: Via Balbi, Via Pre or Via Antonio Gramsci.
Walking along the latter, which is the street under the Sopraelevata, you can breathe in the sea air and the air of the alleys without actually crossing either one or the other.
More or less at the beginning of the route you find yourself in front of this beautiful building, which is now a museum, which was once a convent, a hospital and even a maritime station.

This is the official website of the Museo; questo instead it is the nice post of the Genoa Tourism website.

Here is where the building is located:

The complex consists of two Romanesque-style churches, one on top of the other, which constitute the bulk of the architectural body, and a three-storey building, the commenda, or rather the convent and the hospice (rooms on the ground floor), which fulfilled the dual function of maritime station on the routes to the Holy Land and hospital (ospitaletto), initially for pilgrims and later for the sick and the indigent of the city.
