Badia di Sant'Andrea, Cistercian abbey in Sestri Ponente district, Genoa, Italy.

The monastic complex stands at the base of Erzelli hill between Cornigliano and Sestri Ponente districts, featuring Gothic architectural elements and a traditional stone facade.

Established around 1100, this religious site became Italy's second Cistercian community, following the Abbey of Santa Maria alla Croce di Tiglieto in chronological order.

The abbey functioned as a hospital for pilgrims traveling to the Holy Land and later became a property of notable Genoese families, including Fregoso and Fieschi.

Located in western Genoa, the structure currently functions as a private property housing business offices and is not accessible for public visits.

In 2022, the ownership transferred to 777 Partners, who plan to transform the structure into offices and accommodation for Genoa Football Club's academy.
