The beautiful Grillo Cattaneo square in the alleys of Genoa

The beautiful Piazza Grillo Cattaneo in the alleys of Genoa.
Walking through the alleys of the historic center of Genoa, a couple of times already, I ended up in this beautiful little square overlooking one of the buildings of the Genoese Rolli (Palazzo Lorenzo Cattaneo).
The splendid entrance portal, on the left, is certainly what attracts the eye but the square itself is really beautiful.

Here's where the square is located:

The most evident trace of this intervention is the entrance portal to the palace, created by the Lombard sculptor Antonio della Porta, known as Tamagnino, in 1504. The work reflects the originality of Cattaneo, certainly unique in the Genoese context both for the importance of the client and for the originality of the structure and decoration.

I took a lot of photos around the city of Genoa and you can find almost all of them here or by searching in the various articles specific to the Ligurian city.
If you want to find some ideas to learn more about the Superba I refer you to the website of the Municipality's Tourism: visitgenoa.it. This is the institutional website of the Municipality: smart.comune.genova.it.
If you are looking for a nice portal that talks about all of Liguria I invite you to visit the official website of the Region: lamialiguria.it.
If you need a good paper guide of the city I invite you to consult these publications: Genova e il Tigullio, Genova. Una guida or Guida indipendente alla città di Genova.
If you are passionate about mysteries and legends then I suggest you read these two books: Alla scoperta dei segreti perduti di Genova and Genova misteriosa.
