"Sunset over the Mediterranean Perched high above the old port, Castello D'Albertis boasts some of the most gorgeous panoramas of the ancient town and the old port. On most days, you can spot every single cruise ship in harbor, too. While there is a public elevator (ascensore, in Italian) that takes you up (catch it on Via Balbi), you can also climb the stairs (and burn off some of your focaccia calories!). Find the stairs just after the abandoned Cathedral on Via Balbi - and then just keep walking up!"

This castle is easy to access from the city via the Montegalletto Lift - which is unique in itself. It houses a museum of Cultures of the World with many treasures secured from earlier times as well as some more modern pieces. Garden views over the city are pretty special and can be taken in freely if the museum is not your thing.

Interesting castle with artifacts, a captain collected over the course of his life. We came on a Wednesday around 2pm and were the only patrons inside.

Interesting museum of Captain D’Albertis’s collection from his travel, as well as other exhibits of world artefacts and items with lots of explanation. Something a bit different to do in Genoa, and a cheap entry price for how much there is to see in there. Lots of interesting objects, furniture, art etc., including specialised areas from Asia, Africa, South America, and their significance in the Captain’s life/exploration.

A pleasant place to relax with a beautiful garden and a wonderful view of the castle. A magnificent program over Genoa.

I'm not sure if this is a "hidden gem" or if everyone knows about it, but it was certainly quiet when we went. Surrounded by a beautiful garden with spectacular views across Genoa harbour, Castello d'Albertis was by far my favourite attraction in Genoa (and I went to the aquarium, which is also fantastic). A huge and fascinating collection of artefacts collected from around the world, with a wonderful display of modern and graphic art on the ground and first floor. The cafe was also cheap and good quality. We loved looking at the literally hundreds of oddities and learning about the man himself. A definite must-see if you're in Genoa.

Take the combo cable car/elevator up to this castle. I think it was 6 euros for entry. Artifacts from around the world

Beautiful castle on the hill overlooking Genna with a superb view. Inside, there are lots of interesting exhibits from around the world and pretty architecture throughout the castle. You can also enjoy some light food and drinks at the café before or after the visit. Reasonable entry at €6 for adults. Highly recommended and definitely worth the climb!
