Varazze, Coastal commune in Liguria, Italy
Located 30 kilometers west of Genoa, Varazze extends along the Riviera di Ponente with the Monte Beigua Natural Regional Park in its background.
The settlement originated from the Roman station Ad Navalia and gained independence as a commune in 1227 before joining the Republic of Genoa in 1251.
The Church of San Nazario e Celso, Sant'Ambrogio with its Gothic-Romanesque bell tower, and San Domenico feature notable frescoes from the Sienese school.
The recently constructed tourist port offers numerous docking spaces for boats, water activities, and serves as a departure point for whale watching tours.
The Passeggiata Europa follows the former Genoa-Ventimiglia railway line, creating a coastal walking path that connects Varazze to neighboring Cogoleto.
