About Borzoli
What are the main landmarks in Borzoli?
Three addresses, two of them churches. Santo Stefano in Borzoli Church carries the quartiere's own name into its dedication, and the chiesa di Nostra Signora della Salute stands beside it on the same short record. PalaFigoi is the third.
It is the only entry on Borzoli's list that answers to something other than a parish, and after it the record stops rather than running on into museums or monuments.
What is the history of Borzoli?
No founding year reaches the file. Borzoli's past is carried by its dedications, and Santo Stefano in Borzoli Church is the one that folds the settlement's name into a saint's, which is as close to a charter as this particular record comes. The chiesa di Nostra Signora della Salute follows it.
Genoa took the quartiere onto its roll.
