Not far from Porta Soprana, just outside the ancient medieval walls, is the House of Columbus, where the discoverer of the Americas lived in his youth. According to archival documents, Domenico Colombo, father of the great navigator, moved here in 1445, when Christopher Columbus was four years old. The ground floor of the house was used as a workshop, a wooden beam attic divides it from the upper park, where the rooms for private use were located.
