Palazzo Clemente della Rovere

The Palazzo Clemente della Rovere, located in Genoa, Italy, is a 16th-century palace that was built between 1580 and 1581. The palace was one of the 163 Palazzi dei Rolli of Genoa, selected private residences that hosted notable guests during State visits. Today, the palace hosts the General Consulate of Iceland.

The palace was built in an area between via San Sebastiano and Salita Santa Caterina, which was close to the 16th-century walls at the time. The structure consists of two separate wings, with the San Sebastiano wing being smaller and not in line with the main wing. This structure remains visible today, as the Palace has not undergone any major renovation since Rubens depicted it in the 17th century. On the right-hand side of the Palace, there is a 17th-century statue of Our Lady of Mercy.

In the 19th century, the palace passed to the Piccardo family.
