Palazzo Reale
Palazzo Reale di Genova
A Rolli Palace on Via Balbi that later served as the Savoy royal residence in Genoa, with a dazzling Hall of Mirrors and Throne Room.
The palace was originally the residence of the Balbi and Durazzo families. In the 19th century it became the Savoy royal family's residence in Genoa. Its ornate rooms include the Hall of Mirrors, the ballroom and the Throne Room, and it displays paintings by Van Dyck and Tintoretto. A rooftop hanging garden overlooks the harbour. The palace is part of the Rolli Palace system. Admission is about EUR 10, and it is usually closed on Mondays. It is about a 10-minute walk from Principe station, and you can also visit the University Palace on Via Balbi on the way.
