The beautiful Via Fieschi in the modern heart of Genoa.
Travelling along Via XX Settembre, the modern heart of the Superba, several important streets branch off: one of these is Via Fieschi which, after the initial part, goes up to the Basilica of Santa Maria Assunta in Carignano.

Here is the spot where I took this photo:

The Fieschi family was one of the major Genoese families. Of ancient origin – they took their name from the founder Ugo Fliscus – they were descendants of the counts of Lavagna who had begun to enlarge their fiefdoms within the Marca Obertenga in the 11th century. Originally from the Levante hinterland, the Fieschi had their feudal center in the Tigullio area, the Fontanabuona valley and the hinterland up to the Aveto valley. Here was the center of their power and where in fact the Basilica dei Fieschi was erected in Cogorno in the mid-13th century.
