The steps of the Villa Rocca Park from above

La scalinata del Parco di villa Rocca dall'alto

The steps of the Villa Rocca Park from above.
A few months ago I posted a couple of photos of this staircase taken from below.
This one is the same element taken from above.
I like the lines of the double staircase and also the cobblestone pavement of the space at the bottom of the descent.

The connection between the garden and the park was created at the time of the extension, through a monumental staircase equipped with a nymphaeum placed on the axis of the palace at the entrance from via Costaguta. On the basis of historical documents it is clear that this space constituted the original garden, while the hill above was cultivated.

The historic and noble Villa Sertorio in Sestri

Villa Sertorio a Sestri Levante

The historic and noble Villa Sertorio in Sestri Levante.
Some time ago I already wrote a post about this noble Villa in Sestri Levante but the photos in the post were not those of the actual villa but probably only those of an outbuilding or a house for the servants (here that post).
This was the manor house which is currently located in Via Nazionale.

Do you know the villa and can you tell us some anecdotes about it? Add your own comment or go to the bottom of the site to read what other visitors have written.

Villa Sertorio with its adjoining garden is located near the Sestri train station, between Corso del Gromolo and Via Nazionale. The Sertorio family was officially registered among the Genoese patricians in 1749, with the rectification from the original Sartorio, to avoid confusion with the homonymous family of the Riviera di Ponente.

Monumental staircase of the Botanical Park of Palazzo Rocca

Scalone monumentale del Parco Botanico di Palazzo Rocca

Monumental staircase of the Botanical Park of Palazzo Rocca.
After many years of thinking about it, I finally managed to visit the Villa Rocca Park in Chiavari.
It is probably the most important closed park in Eastern Tigullio and together with Palazzo Rocca they constitute a beautiful example of a noble villa.
The park itself, even though there is an entrance fee (1 euro per person), did not particularly excite me.
The monumental staircase that took the visitor to see the lakes and caves of the park (which is currently not passable) was perhaps the most beautiful element to photograph.
The view of the square in front is also splendid as you go up and I will demonstrate this to you in a later post.

The majolica and coats of arms of Palazzo Fascie Rossi

The majolica and coats of arms of Palazzo Fascie Rossi.
The facade of Palazzo Fascie Rossi, the splendid palace in the center of Sestri Levante, hosts on its facade some majolica that represent heralds and coats of arms of noble families (I think from Sestri Levante).
Shortly before taking the photos I had seen a post or a photo that named some of the most important families of Sestri Levante but when I searched for it I could no longer find it.

For this reason I really can't tell you which families they are, if you can help me add a comment or go to the bottom of the site to read what other visitors have written.
