Bellissima fortezza con vista Super This place is too touristy and "trampled" to be a good place for tourists to visit. But, if you love old castles and everything connected with them, you can certainly visit it. From the top there is a good view of the and port. One of the most interesting spots in Savona and surprisingly free to visit. The is beautifully located on a hill that has been the heart of the since the Bronze Age. There is also an archaeological museum inside, although it was closed when I visited. The place feels raw and austere which actually gives it a lot of charm. You can walk through the interior, explore the rooftop terraces and climb the ramparts for stunning of the sea, the and the mountains. Definitely worth seeing if you are in Savona. A neat place and easily reached frim anywhere in Savona. Not crowded, so you really get to enjoy the and its views. Always astonishing to see something this old yet in such good conditions. Respect to the keepers here. The view over the town, the Sea and the beach is just beautiful. Didn't like it, uninteresting place. ill-conceived inconvenient for tourists. Of course, closed in the middle of the day. Every time you try to take a photo, the photo ends up with some kind of trash can with uncollected garbage. in general, a only from afar Impressive and pretty. Great views. The staff at the ceramic museum was very kind too. and some good photo opportunities but no info about the building which would've been very helpful and interesting. There is so much potential here that is not being used. If it wasn't free to enter I wouldn't have recommended to go. Fortaleza tipo Bastion, muy lindo, entrada gratuita fuera del museo y excelente vista de la ciudad in the of Savona.

I have always been a fan of castles and fortresses and I won't miss the chance to visit this one! You could enter the without having to pay except for the museums and the current film viewing at night. At the top you could see the cityskyline and the sea! We went to one of the museums and the entrance costs 5 eur (entire price) or 3 eur (discounted price) per head. The receptionist is accomodating and well-informed of the things showcased inside the museum. A very pleasant place for a walk with over the and the sea. Rich history and a strong cultural atmosphere. Definitely worth visiting. 🌏🏛 Priamar is a large 16th-century military built by the Republic of Genoa on the ruins of the old of Savona.
