Located close to the old harbour information technology had been for many centuries the seat of political and religious power of the city.

Etymology [edit]

Molo takes its name from the pier (in Italian "molo") built since the 13th century by enlarging the natural spit enclosing Mandraccio cove, the oldest portion of erstwhile harbour, today filled. The Molo was further repeatedly expanded and fortified; now information technology is chosen Molo Vecchio (Onetime Pier), as reverse to the New Pier, built at the end of the 19th century at the western side of the port.

On 31 December 2015 there were 11,588 people living in Molo, with a population density of 33,109 people per km².^[1]

Geography [edit]

Molo is located south east in the old town of Genoa and includes 3 zones:

• Hill of Castello, seat of the first city settlement (6th century B.C.), in a dominant position on the harbour.
• The portion of old town at the foot of the hill of Castello, for many centuries seat of political and religious ability of the city, with the Doge's Palace and St. Lawrence cathedral.
• The neighbourhood properly called "Molo", with its former houses close to "Malapaga walls" and Mandraccio cove.

History [edit]

Colina of Castello was the first metropolis settlement, founded by Ligurians in the 6th century B.C., dominating Mandraccio cove, place of commercial commutation with Etruscan people and Greek colonists from Marseille.^{[2] [3]}

This settlement was destroyed by the Carthaginian full general Mago Barca during Second Punic War and rebuilt by Romans in the semi-plain area immediately behind the harbour, closest to the harbour.^[three]

During the Early Middle Ages large part of the Roman city area was abased and became a rural area again. After the destructions caused by the Fatimid raid of 934 the metropolis was rebuilt once more. The bishop, who held both religious and political power, possessed a fortified castle on the top of the hill (which gave the name to the hill itself) and a palace about St. Lawrence cathedral. The most important feudal families congenital their palaces almost the cathedral, in the place where later Doge's Palace was built, making this area the seat of the city power.^{[2] [iii] [4]}

Since the 10th century the town expanded exterior the walls, in areas at that time rural (equally a reference, at that time date the names of some streets, like "Luccoli", from the Latin "lucus", forest, "Campetto", modest field and "Canneto", cane field).^[five]

In the twelfth century the noble families gave rise to the self-governing commune of Genoa which included the entire area within the new walls, known every bit Barbarossa's walls, divided in "civitas" (current Molo) and "burgus "(current Maddalena).^[2] These families, constantly fighting each other, had their own private citadels in the alleys, each with a palace, a central square and sometimes a noble church, such as Doria in San Matteo and Della Volta in San Torpete.

Aslope the feudal families, since 13th century grew the importance of Craft Associations. In that aforementioned century to protect the harbour the pier which gives the name to the neighborhood was built. Over the centuries it was extended several times, the terminal time in 1835.

In the 2d half of the 19th century the harbour was expanded, creating an area for send repairs, with the realization of the get-go ii dry docks.

During Earth War Two the city was severely damaged past aerial bombings: on the top of the hill the monasteries of San Silvestro and S. Maria in Passione and many houses were completely destroyed. The subsequent depopulation caused the pass up of this area,^[six] situation well described in the film The Walls of Malapaga (1949).

During the last decades of the 20th century restructuring programs took place, and the neighborhood is now showing signs of recovery, with the restoration of homes and shops, the new edifice of Architecture section of Genoa University and cultural institution, like the Teatro della Tosse, boarding houses for students and coming together places for young people.^{[ii] [7] [8]}
