Cemeteries Cimitero Monumentale di Staglieno The Monumental Cemetery of Staglieno was conceived by the architect Carlo Barabino, but the structure was executed after his death by his student Giovanni Battista Resasco. Work began in 1844 in the area of Villa Vaccarezza in Staglieno, not very far from the town of Genoa. Resasco had the objective of maintaining the rectangular structure conceived by Barabino and aroused the admiration of contemporaries for the scenography and architecture of the Pantheon. Among the tombs we include that of Campodonico and Senator Tito Orsini.
