Museo Emanuele Luzzati

Museo Emanuele Luzzati, Modern art museum in Porta del Molo, Genoa, Italy.

The Museo Emanuele Luzzati occupies Porta Siberia, a 16th-century gate by Galeazzo Alessi restored in 1992 by Renzo Piano. Inside, a large central hall with gun ports leads to four cannoniera rooms used for exhibitions, workshops, screenings and a bookshop, with a rooftop terrace for open-air events.

The museum occupies Porta Siberia, a gate built by architect Galeazzo Alessi in the 16th century and restored in 1992 with the Porto Antico area under Renzo Piano's plan. In the 1980s, before restoration, the Circolo Arte e Musica used the gate for musical events. Genoa's municipality named the museum after scenographer and illustrator Emanuele Luzzati in 2001, and it opened in June 2008. In October 2019 the spaces were taken over by an infopoint for the new Ponte per Genova works.

The museum displays works that merge theater, visual art, and illustration into a single creative vision. Visitors encounter Luzzati's designs for opera stages and literary projects, showing how his imagination crossed different artistic boundaries.

This art museum is located in the harbor district and is easy to reach by public transport or nearby parking. The space includes rest areas and a small shop where you can browse books and souvenirs related to the collection.

The museum's home, Porta Siberia, was built in the 16th century by architect Galeazzo Alessi and restored in 1992 as part of Renzo Piano's redevelopment of the Porto Antico. In the 1980s, before that restoration, the Circolo Arte e Musica used the gate for musical events. The building has a large central hall plus four former gun emplacements, the cannoniere, now used as rooms.
