Nostra Signora del Rimedio, Catholic church in Foce, Genoa, Italy.
Nostra Signora del Rimedio is a church featuring baroque revival style with ornate decorative elements across its facade and interior spaces. The structure follows traditional church proportions with a nave, side aisles, and an elevated altar area.
Construction of the church began in 1900 following a commission from Giovanni Tommaso Invrea to establish a place of worship in the Foce neighborhood. It was built during a period of growth and development in this part of the city.
The church was created to serve the spiritual needs of Foce's expanding population through the vision of a private donor. Today it functions as a local religious center where Catholic worship and community gatherings take place regularly.
The church is located in the Foce area near the waterfront and can be easily reached on foot while exploring the neighborhood. Access is typically available outside times of private celebrations or special religious ceremonies.
The name refers to a Marian devotion associated with protection and healing in popular religious tradition. Despite its status as a protected cultural site, it remains less visited than larger churches elsewhere in Genoa.
