Galata Museo del Mare

In the heart of Genoa’s port stands the Galata Maritime Museum, the largest maritime museum in the Mediterranean.
Opened in 2004 and designed by architect Guillermo Vasques Consuegra, it blends the history of the old arsenal with modern steel and glass architecture.

The exhibition unfolds across 5 floors and 31 rooms, featuring immersive reconstructions, artworks, and original artifacts.

A fascinating journey between man and the sea, from the time of Christopher Columbus to contemporary migrations, passing through galleys, sailing ships, and steamships.
The visit ends at the Belvedere, offering a breathtaking view of the port and old city.

A unique experience of history, emotion, and adventure.
