Imperia

Imperia straddles the mouth of the Impero River on the Ligurian Sea in western Liguria, and this coastal position helped shape its port and trading life. Created in 1923 through the union of Porto Maurizio, Oneglia and nearby communes, it still has two distinct urban identities. Porto Maurizio rises around the medieval Parasio quarter, while Oneglia developed as a working harbour and commercial centre. Olive growing has long influenced local food and industry, and Oneglia’s Museo dell’Olivo documents the production and trade of Ligurian olive oil. Arcaded Calata Cuneo runs along the harbourfront.
