The Albisolas are first of all a land of ceramics. Artistic production is more than 500 years old, and the numerous shops, the studios and the manufactured objects keep the tradition alive. Defined by Marinetti a “Free Republic of the Arts”, Albissola Marina is famous for the Artists’ Promenade, a mosaic about 800 metres long representing a great outdoor work. Albissola continues to be a pole of attraction and a meeting place for art lovers and artists, also thanks to the famous International Festival of Majolica, a review of shows, conferences and markets that promotes the ancient local art of ceramics.
