Palazzo Centurione Gio. Battista, Renaissance palace in Piazza Fossatello, Genoa, Italy

The palace features a prominent stone facade with classical inscriptions and monumental Serlian windows positioned along each floor level.

The construction of Palazzo Centurione began in 1611 under architects Battista and Pier Filippo Cantone on land belonging to banker Adamo Centurione.

The interior displays frescoes by renowned artists including Domenico Piola's Bacchus and Ariadne and Gregorio De Ferrari's Triumph of Liguria.

The palace maintains both residential units and office spaces, with direct access from Piazza Fossatello in the central district of Genoa.

The architects solved spatial constraints by positioning the main staircase parallel to the facade, creating an innovative design solution for the period.
