Among the alleys and the ancient port of Genoa lies a treasure that deserves to be told: the Galata – Maritime Museum. With its 12,000 square meters and 31 exhibition rooms, it is the largest maritime museum in the entire Mediterranean. Not just a simple exhibition space, but a true immersive journey into the history of Italian navigation, thanks to cutting-edge technologies and interactive paths.
The surprise you don't expect
The flagship of the Galata is something unique in Italy: the submarine S518 Nazario Sauro. Unlike other historical submarines, it is not located on land. Here the visit takes place in the open sea… or almost. The Nazario Sauro is moored in the waters of the ancient port and truly floats.
An experience that immerses you in history
Boarding means living the life of submariners: descending into the narrow cabins, observing the original instruments, listening to the sounds of the sea filtering through the hull. A sensory experience that transforms the visit into an adventure with water moving beneath your feet.
