Via del Campo 29 rosso

When in Italy we talk about songwriters, the city par excellence is undoubtedly Genoa.

If you are a lover of Genoese songwriters you should definitely visit this museum which takes its name from the famous song by Fabrizio de André.

Via del campo 29 rosso is a small but really well-kept museum: the theme of the exhibition is the Genoese school, which made the history of Italian music.

If you ask around, many know it simply as “De André museum”.

It is precisely the space that was once the “Musica Gianni Tassio” shop, a historic place for musicians and enthusiasts, to host the exhibition.

When Fabrizio De André disappeared, this museum became a place of memory for his admirers, but the museum is also dedicated to other exponents of the Genoese school including Lauzi, Tenco and Gino Paoli.

Here you can admire original vinyls, photographs, books, periodicals and many interesting memorabilia.

The highlight of the museum is Fabrizio de Andrè’s historic guitar, the “Esteve ’97”.
