Built in the early 1800s, the building stands in the heart of Genoa’s historic city centre, between Palazzo Tursi and Palazzo Albini (both housing municipal offices), and Palazzo Bianco and Palazzo Rosso (home to the Strada Nuova Museums). It currently accommodates municipal offices. The property is located in one of the city’s most remarkable settings, not only for its proximity to the historic landmarks of Via Garibaldi, which it overlooks, but also for the vibrant social life that surrounds it.
Via Garibaldi, 9 - Genova (GE) occupied by municipal offices - free of charge
The historic building, currently undergoing enhancement in view of its disposal, comprises seven floors, including one semi-basement level overlooking the courtyard, with a total gross floor area of 3,701 sqm and a covered area of approximately 550 sqm. The floor plan is largely consistent across levels, with a centrally located stairwell and an external elevator shaft. The main frontage faces south. Permitted uses include commercial, office, residential, and hospitality functions. The total surface area amounts to 3,701 sqm.
The property is currently occupied by municipal offices but will be vacant upon transfer. Originally conceived as a residential palace, the building was constructed on the site of the former Church of San Francesco al Castelletto, following the suppression of religious orders during the Napoleonic era and the subsequent demolition of the church. Traces of this past remain visible in several architectural details of the façade, which incorporates columns and portions of the side nave arches of the former church, as well as within the courtyard.
The palace enjoys panoramic views over the city and the sea and offers large, contiguous spaces under single ownership within a prestigious setting.
Its central yet discreet location just off Via Garibaldi, between Palazzo Tursi and Palazzo Bianco, allows the property and its enhancement project to return to the city an asset long inaccessible, revealing a treasure that has always existed but has never been fully perceived. Palazzo Galliera is located in the heart of the historic city centre, close to the institutional hub of the Municipality of Genoa, the city’s financial and economic district, and the prestigious historic quarter featuring panoramic viewpoints, museums, the Aquarium, and UNESCO World Heritage sites.
The area is characterised by the presence of numerous offices, institutions, services, as well as leisure, entertainment, and food & beverage activities in the immediate surroundings. The property benefits from proximity to metro and bus stops, as well as large-capacity public parking facilities.
The property is approximately 8.8 km from Genoa Cristoforo Colombo Airport and about 2 km from Genova Piazza Principe railway station. Motorway connections are reachable within approximately 3.8 km. The proximity to the freight terminal and intermodal hub, as well as to the Port of Genoa, located around 3 km away, further enhances the accessibility of the asset.
