Palazzo Giacomo Spinola, Renaissance palace in Piazza Fontane Marose, Genoa, Italy
The palace features a facade with two-colored bands and marble statues of family members displayed in decorative niches along its exterior walls.
Construction of the palace began in 1445 for Giacomo Spinola, and the building became a residence for Giovanni Battista Spinola, who served as Doge from 1613 to 1615.
Three marble statues on the facade were created by sculptor Domenico Gagini da Bissone, representing important members of the Spinola family through the generations.
The palace currently houses the Banco di Sardegna and opens to visitors during specific events, including the annual 'Invitation to the Palace' on October's first Saturday.
The interior maintains original wooden ceilings with brackets bearing the Spinola family coat of arms, which underwent careful restoration to preserve their authenticity.
