Medieval marina

            Used since the 12th century, it was used by fishermen and small-medium sized commercial vessels. It was enlarged and strengthened by Jacopo III Appiani in 1470, the year in which the breakwater was built. Jacopo III's 15th century works were mainly aimed at anchoring his own galley, as well as other small court vessels, given the proximity of his residence to the Citadel. This inevitably led to a reduction in the anchorages of many vessels used for fishing and commercial traffic.
