This proposal aims to connect the Begato Fortress, situated 450 meters above sea level on the mountains surrounding Genoa, with the city’s historical center and port. This project attempts to enhance the recently restored 19th-century castle by improving its accessibility. The fortress could become a center for various activities and events, including trekking, climbing, and mountain biking, as well as a place to eat typical Ligurian dishes or attend shows at an open-air theater. For this project, we collaborated with Andrea Guiglia and Emanuele Piazza.
