Albenga

Albenga is a unique and special place, where the history of the past blends harmoniously with the modern city.

Albenga is situated in the middle of a wide bay with a sandy beach at the mouth of the Centa River. It matches its role as an important floriculture and horticulture’s market with a vocation for beach tourism, outdoor activities, and historical-cultural attractions. It has a remarkable historic center of both, roman and medieval origin, being considered the “City of a Hundred Towers.”
