The first Genova Brignole station opened in 1868 as the terminus of the railway line from Chiavari, coming from the south. In 1872, the line was extended through the Traversata Tunnel to Genova Piazza Principe station, which thus became a through station instead of a terminus. The current station building was constructed between 1902 and 1905 in anticipation of a planned World's Fair. This fair, however, was ultimately held in Liège, Belgium. The station's architecture combines romantic Neo-Renaissance motifs with Neoclassical elements and is certainly very impressive. And indeed, a World's Fair did take place in Genoa in 1992, which hopefully attracted many visitors by train. More information: https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bahnhof_Genova_Brignole

The pilgrimage church of Riomaggiore is located high above the village in the Cinque Terre and offers phenomenal views.

Genoa Cathedral captivates with its magnificent façade and exquisitely ornate interior. I highly recommend climbing the tower!

Genova Brignole station is one of Genoa's two main train stations and is located east of the city center. From here, trains depart to destinations including the popular Cinque Terre.

Very large, impressive square with beautiful, large, very well preserved old buildings.

One of the wonderfully told stories about the two protagonists, "Don Camillo and Peppone," conceived by the Italian writer Giovanni Guareschi, also involves the Virgin Mary. Peppone's youngest son is seriously ill, so one evening the communist mayor sets out for the church with five large candles. Don Camillo intends to place them in front of the crucifix on the high altar, but Peppone objects and wants the candles placed in the Chapel of Our Lady: "This one belongs to your party. Light them in front of this one over there, who doesn't practice politics." After he leaves, Don Camillo—who, as always, is conversing with the crucified Christ—begs him "not to be harsh with him." The dialogue continues: "And why should I?" whispered Christ. "By honoring my mother, he fills my heart with gentleness. I'm only a little displeased that he called her 'that one.'" Don Camillo shook his head. "You didn't hear well," he objected. "He said, 'Light them all before the Blessed Immaculate Virgin in that chapel over there.'" (Giovanni Guareschi in "Five and Five")
