Genoa’s Staglieno Cemetery is one of Europe’s largest. I may have only seen a small portion but it was simply amazing. There were endless corridors of tombs, along with mausoleums and burials.

Dating to the mid 13th century, the Bargello housed the podesta, the highest magistrate of the Florence city council. In 1574, the Medici got rid of that position and put the police chief here. The building was used as a prison. The interior yard was even used to execute people until 1786, although the police didn't move out until 1859. Now it's a fantastic museum.
