Church located in Genoa preserving a beautiful tower of octagonal plan.
Lost in the maze of caruggi in the historical center, here is one of the most important testimonies of Romanesque art in Genoa (11th century church, enlarged in the 12th century). Restored in the nineteenth century (the rose window and the portico on the façade date from this period), the church still has a beautiful octagonal tower, which served as inspiration in the 1980s for the Matitone skyscraper on the west side of the industrial port. Inside, in the chapel of St. Joseph, you can admire the precious triptych of the Adoration of the Magi by Joos Van Cleeve (1515).

Enchâssée dans la vieille ville, l'église San Donato à la façade romane avec alternance de noir et blanc réserve de merveilleuses surprises artistiques. Un triptyque d'un maître flamand du 16ème, van Cleeve, l'Adoration des mages qu'on peut voir de près dans une chapelle tranquillissime qui recèle aussi une attendrissante Vierge allaitant du 14è de Barnanba da Modena, oeuvres très bien éclairées. Attention, l'église ferme à l'heure du déjeuner
