Museum of Sant'Agostino
The 13th-century church and monastery of Sant'Agostino, once a
place of retirement and seclusion, is now open for visitors to view
the amazing collections within. The church itself was built by the
Augustinians in 1260, and is one of the few Gothic buildings
remaining in Genoa. Today, the cloisters are a museum housing more
than 4,000 works, including metal and stone sculptures, frescoes,
and many architectural artefacts and fragments. One of the most
popular attractions in Genoa, the museum is a must-see for visitors
to the region.

Language
The official language of Italy is Italian. English is
understood in the larger cities but not in the more remote parts of
the country.

The Euro (EUR) is the official currency, which is divided into
100 cents. Those arriving in Italy with foreign currency can obtain
Euros through any bank, ATM or bureaux de change. ATMs are
widespread. Travellers cheques can be exchanged with ease in the
large cities, not so in the smaller towns. Credit cards are
accepted in upmarket establishments and shops around the cities.
Banks are closed on weekends, but tend to have better rates than
casas de cambios.
