Cattedrale di San Lorenzo

ChurchGenoa & PortofinoAbout 35 minutes

Striped black and white in the Ligurian manner, at the heart of the old town's alleyways. An unexploded naval shell from 1941 still sits inside where it landed. Free, central, and the natural pause in a walk through the carruggi around it.
