Darsena
The dock
Near the Loggia there are small lanes like via della Compera, via
Molinelli and vico dei Finollo wich represented the dock of Levanto and
wich were storehouses (today we found out 11 of them on a surface of
4000square meters) of the canal port at the outlet of Cantarana
river.This landing place, on service from the low middle-age to the
beginning of XVI century, was an important trade point to Val di Vara,
Parma and Piacenza. Of this structure there are some ruins left inside
the walls of the houses built later on ( local serpentine arches, some
of them are quite big).
