Albenga

takes a pride in its extremely well-preserved historic centre with medieval towers and palazzi built along the two main streets, which date back to Roman times. Here we can find Saint Michael’s cathedral and the early Christian baptistery with coeval mosaic. The little Lions’ Square is a romantic medieval spot full of atmosphere. The Roman Naval Museum  displays the hull of a Roman merchant ship ( I century b. C.), the cargo and various other everyday life objects. “Magical Transparencies”, in Oddo Palace, displays Roman glassware and the “Blue Tray”. A “Braille route” is available for tourists with seeing disabilities.
