The Church of San Luca was founded in 1188 by Oberto Spinola and declared a noble parish of the Spinola and Grimaldi families. Rebuilt in Baroque style between 1626 and 1650, based on a design attributed to Bartolomeo Bianco, it suffered serious damage during the bombings of 1943, requiring major restoration.
