Rolli Days d'Autunno

The autumn return of the Rolli Days

After the spring edition, the Rolli Days return in autumn for a second weekend dedicated to the opening of the Palazzi dei Rolli in Genoa. These are the sumptuous noble residences of the Strade Nuove, built between the 16th and 17th centuries and inscribed in the "rolli", the official lists of the Republic that determined which palaces would host state guests. Since 2006, this urban system has been a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

A heritage to experience

As in the spring version, the autumn edition transforms the historic centre into a large open-air museum: dozens of palaces, villas, and cultural sites become freely accessible, many of which are usually closed to the public. Visitors are guided by young scientific communicators, who recount the architecture, art history, and daily life of the great Genoese families.

In celebration of the UNESCO 20th Anniversary

The autumn 2026 edition is part of the celebrations for the twentieth anniversary of the UNESCO recognition, an occasion that runs through the city's entire cultural calendar. It is an opportunity to rediscover lesser-known corners of the Rolli system and to experience Liguria in a less crowded season, but one that is equally rich in initiatives.

Art, music, and families

Alongside the visits, the programme usually includes concerts, performances, and Rolli Kids activities dedicated to children. An experience designed for everyone, which confirms Genoa's commitment to enhancing and sharing its extraordinary architectural heritage.
