Where to stay in Staglieno
The right area depends on your trip — here's what each neighbourhood is best for.
Visitors come for the cemetery. The Staglieno Cemetery Pantheon draws most of the traffic that reaches this quartiere, and the Museo dell'Acqua e del Gas supplies a second reason to spend part of a day here rather than a night. Rooms, though, are a Genoa question.
A bed in the wider city keeps the Monument to the Bersagliere and the Memorial to Firefighters on the same itinerary as everything else the municipality holds.

About Staglieno
What are the main landmarks in Staglieno?
Six entries, and no filler among them. The Staglieno Cemetery Pantheon anchors the list, with the Museo dell'Acqua e del Gas beside it, and the two churches, San Bartolomeo Apostolo and the chiesa di San Pantaleo, holding the parish end of the record. Two memorials complete it.
The Monument to the Bersagliere and the Memorial to Firefighters are commemorative rather than devotional, which gives Staglieno a mixed register instead of a purely ecclesiastical one.
What is the history of Staglieno?
The cemetery supplies the dated material here, and the Staglieno Cemetery Pantheon is the one entry whose label names both the burial ground and the quartiere around it. Staglieno's own beginnings went unrecorded. Genoa's roll carries the name and little else by way of a date.
San Bartolomeo Apostolo and the chiesa di San Pantaleo hold the parish end of that record, while the Monument to the Bersagliere and the Memorial to Firefighters were raised for the remembered rather than the buried.
