The little square named after Meloria in Finalborgo.
One of the most beautiful villages in Italy is in the province of Savona and is called Finalborgo (a hamlet of Finale Ligure).
This is one of the many little squares in the town but the peculiarity is the undulating shape of the alley and the buildings.
I was looking for something about Meloria, to understand if it was a known name and I discovered that it is also the name of a shoal, in the sea between Liguria and Tuscany, where there was also a famous battle in 1284 in which Genoa overwhelmed Pisa.

I took dozens of photos in the beautiful western town, click here to see them all:

The Battle of Meloria was a historic naval battle involving the fleet of the Republic of Genoa and that of the Maritime Republic of Pisa. The battle, which took place on August 6, 1284 off the coast of Porto Pisano, greatly weakened the Pisan naval fleet, beginning the slow decline of Pisa as a maritime power in Italy during the Middle Ages.
