San Francesco d'Albaro Church, Baroque parish church in Albaro district, Genoa, Italy
The San Francesco d'Albaro Church features ornate altarpieces and frescoes within its interior, displaying notable examples of baroque architectural elements.
The church's construction began in 1476, during a period when the Albaro district transformed from rural landscapes with vineyards into a destination for Genoese aristocrats.
The religious building maintains its function as a central gathering place for the community, hosting regular services and ceremonies for local residents.
Located near several cafes and shops in the Albaro district, the church remains open throughout the week for visitors to explore its architectural details.
The church stands in an area where Lord Byron resided in 1822 and Charles Dickens spent time writing during the summer of 1844.
