San Benedetto al Porto, Roman Catholic church in San Teodoro district, Genoa, Italy.
The stone building combines medieval architectural elements with a simple facade design and contains multiple side chapels along its main nave.
The church emerged during the late medieval period when Genoa developed into a maritime power, serving as a spiritual anchor for returning sailors.
The interior displays numerous religious artworks, including frescoes and sculptures created by local Genoese artists throughout different periods.
Visitors can reach the church via public transportation, with guided tours available during regular opening hours from Monday through Saturday.
Since 1970, the church has housed the San Benedetto al Porto Community, founded by Don Andrea Gallo to promote social inclusion initiatives.
