Clelia Durazzo Grimaldi’s botanical garden in Pegli
The botanical garden at Pegli offers a close view of the plant collection associated with Clelia Durazzo Grimaldi. Glasshouses and planted beds make a compact sequence within the larger estate.
Aus der Quelle
Genoa’s municipal visitor service dates this botanical garden in Pegli to 1794 and attributes its foundation to Clelia Durazzo Grimaldi. It lies within the Villa Durazzo Pallavicini estate, whose larger landscape park developed in a later phase under Ignazio Pallavicini.
Redaktionelle Einordnung
Genoa distinguishes the botanical foundation of 1794 from the later development of the romantic park. The photograph shows the glasshouses and planted compartments of the botanical garden itself. Take time to read the garden at the scale of a single bed or glasshouse. The collection becomes clearer when seen as a series of particular growing spaces within the broader landscape of the villa.
Empfehlung
Consult the estate or municipal visitor service for access to the botanical section in Pegli. Confirm whether the garden and the wider park have separate opening arrangements before planning to visit both.
