The first Genova Brignole station opened in 1868 as the terminus of the railway line from Chiavari, coming from the south. In 1872, the line was extended through the Traversata Tunnel to Genova Piazza Principe station, which thus became a through station instead of a terminus. The current station building was constructed between 1902 and 1905 in anticipation of a planned World's Fair. This fair, however, was ultimately held in Liège, Belgium. The station's architecture combines romantic Neo-Renaissance motifs with Neoclassical elements and is certainly very impressive. And indeed, a World's Fair did take place in Genoa in 1992, which hopefully attracted many visitors by train. More information: https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bahnhof_Genova_Brignole

Genova Brignole station is one of Genoa's two main train stations and is located east of the city center. From here, trains depart to destinations including the popular Cinque Terre.

A little paradise in the middle of the big city 🌊☀️ – Boccadasse lies on the eastern outskirts of Genoa and feels like another world. Between pastel-colored houses 🏘️, small boats 🚤, and narrow cobblestone streets, the scent of the sea and fresh focaccia 🥖🐟 wafts. The tiny pebble beach is a meeting place for locals and visitors alike – here, people sit on the wall with gelato 🍦, chat, swim, or simply enjoy the view of the Mediterranean 💙. It becomes particularly atmospheric in the evening, when the sun bathes the houses in warm light 🌅. Around the small piazza and the harbor, cozy restaurants and trattorias invite you to linger 🍝🍷. Despite its popularity, Boccadasse has retained its authentic charm—a place where time seems to have stood still. Tip: It's best reached on foot along the Genoa coast or by bus—especially beautiful at sunset.

Listen to the audio guide: https://open.spotify.com/episode/19z4eqTjKQF17zebBTbCbb?si=482a39fabdc7480d Inside the Edoardo Firpo viewpoint, there is the Church of S. Antonio in Boccadasse. It was built in 1706 by Genoese fishermen and sailors who, on stormy days at sea, hung their ex-votos there, that is, small handcrafted models of ships, which are still kept in the church today. In 1745 it became the seat of the Confraternity of S. Antonio da Padova and since 1894 it has been a parish looked after by the Friars Minor Conventual of the Franciscan Order. This is the only church in Genoa dedicated to the Saint, where on June 13 the patron saint's day is celebrated with the Procession of the Crucifix and a ceremony at sea, when the fishermen carry the statue of Saint Anthony by boat with fireworks to conclude the evening. The church houses works of art by Francesco Storace and Antonio Canepa. The abbey, which is located at the entrance to the ancient seaside village of Boccadasse, is almost to protect and watch over the small and picturesque village of Pescatori.
