The house where Giovanni Descalzo was born in Sestri Levante.
In Corso Colombo, one of the central streets of Sestri, there is the house where the poet Giovanni Descalzo was born.
On the facade of the building a plaque reads:
In questa casa
nacque
GIOVANNI DESCALZO
popolano di eletta nobiltà
tempra costante al dolore
poeta nelle opere e nella vita
per virtù d’anima e d’ingenio
salito alle armonie dell’arte
e della fraternità umana
1902 – 1951
