Castello Bruzzo, Castle in Genoa, Italy
Castello Bruzzo is a castle in Genoa with a central quadrangular block topped by a high tower featuring a pavilion roof. The structure combines grey stone walls with brick elements in a mix of solid and decorative features.
Architect Gino Coppedè designed the structure in 1904 for engineer Pietro Micheli. In 1912, Lorenzo Bruzzo purchased the building and subsequently expanded it.
The main hall displays stone fireplaces and frescoes showing Saint George defeating the dragon, with decorative ribbons and trophies adorning the walls. These ornaments reflect the tastes of the early 1900s.
The site operates today as an event venue with dedicated spaces for ceremonies and celebrations. Visits require advance reservations at Via Piaggio 9.
The southern loggia displays frescoed vaults decorated with zodiac signs and floral patterns. The former game room features four romantic scenes painted by artist Enrico Bernardi.
