- History of the Dockyard.
- The first structures for the Dockyard go back to 1200, in a city which built its economic fortune on the sea, in order to be able to rely on protected areas, seeing that the old Mandraccio wharf was not sufficient. ... In the following century, a large part of the goods sheds were converted into depots for the Dockyard; whilst in the Napoleonic period, the buildings were stripped of their century-old fittings, and thereafter restructured by the Savoy administration, who built two new floors with large vaults, making the construction into the largest and most imposing depot of the Maritime Dockyard of Genoa, in business until it was transferred to La Spezia. Regarding the donation by the Duke of Galliera in 1876, which made the complete restructuring of the port equipment possible, there was the condition that the Dockyard be conceded to the City Council to be used as commercial depots, following the model of the London docks, leaving room for a century-old fight which only recently has been resolved, with the Dockyard being taken away from the State Property Office for good. ...
