The alley called via del Campo in the historic center of Genoa.
This is the first little climb you encounter while walking along one of the most famous alleys in Genoa: via del Campo.
Just past Porta dei Vacca, this long alleyway begins, which, among ethnic and retail shops, reaches Piazza Banchi.
Via del Campo, c’è una graziosa
Gli occhi grandi color di foglia
Tutta notte sta sulla soglia
Vende a tutti la stessa rosa…
– Fabrizio De André –

Via del Campo (in Ligurian in-no Campo) is a paved street in the Genoese district of Prè, which crosses the caruggi of the historic center in a transverse direction. It is best known for being the setting for one of the most famous songs by the Genoese singer-songwriter Fabrizio De André, set to music with Enzo Jannacci, entitled, precisely, Via del Campo and included in the album Volume I. The street was later also cited in the song La casa in via del Campo by Amália Rodrigues.
