San Barnaba, Religious structure in Oregina district, Genoa, Italy.
The Catholic church of San Barnaba stands on a hillside path called Salita di San Barnaba, ascending from Corso Firenze in the Oregina neighborhood.
Built in the mid-13th century, the church features an ancient triple-arched window on its facade and stone inscriptions dating from 1286 and 1362.
The artist Bernardo Strozzi lived within San Barnaba from 1597 to 1608, creating religious artworks before leaving to support his family financially.
The church contains a nativity scene with figurines crafted by Bissoni and Maragliano, located at Piazza San Barnaba 29 in Genoa.
The building served as a chapel for Cistercian nuns before being transferred to Capuchin fathers in 1538, who established their novitiate there.
