Parchi di Nervi
A seaside park made up of the gardens of three aristocratic villas, famous for its rose garden. One of the villas houses a modern art museum.
The Parchi di Nervi links the gardens of three 19th-century villas: Villa Grimaldi, Villa Gropallo and Villa Saluzzo Serra. The park covers about 9 hectares and is planted with Mediterranean species such as palms, olives and citrus. The rose garden at Villa Grimaldi blooms in late spring, and the Nervi International Ballet Festival is held here in summer. Villa Saluzzo Serra houses a modern art gallery, and there is also the Wolfsoniana museum. The park is free to enter, museums can be visited on a combined ticket, and they are closed on Mondays. It sits right next to the seafront promenade.
