Ariston Theater in Sanremo
The Ariston Theater and Cinema is the largest in Sanremo and one of the most famous in Italy. Its famous facade is familiar even to those Italians who have never been to Sanremo in their lives. The fact is that the Italian Song Festival has been held in the cinema for almost 40 years.
Bussana-Vecchia
Ten kilometers from Sanremo, there is an intriguing colony of artists in the ghost town of Bussana Vecchia (“Old Bussana”). On Ash Wednesday in 1887, an earthquake destroyed several Ligurian cities, including Bussana.
Villa “Nobel”
Villa Nobel is not just a building of extraordinary artistic value, but also a place for meetings, cultural and scientific discussions. In addition, it is also a museum full of interesting relics, with a rich library. This building in the Moorish style of the 18th century was built in the middle of 1874.
Villa Ormond
This villa is located on Corso Cavalotti, in the eastern part of the city, and is famous for its beautiful garden, for which it is sometimes called the “green lungs of Sanremo”. The park, which once stretched from the villa on the top of the hill to the sea, was recently divided in two by a road.
Sanremo City Museum
The City Museum is the most visited of Sanremo’s cultural attractions. Not least due to the fact that the museum occupies a beautiful historical building. This is the Palazzo Borea d’Olmo, which is considered one of the most interesting Baroque buildings in Liguria east of Genoa. The building acquired its rich Baroque appearance after the renovation of the 17th and 18th centuries.
