The plaque affixed under Porta dei Vacca in Genoa

The plaque affixed under Porta dei Vacca in Genoa.
Under Porta dei Vacca, one of the entrances to the historic center of Genoa (from which Via del Campo starts), I discovered and photographed this beautiful plaque thinking it was linked to the gate.
Searching further online I discovered that it is a plaque that refers to the battle that made Genoa triumph over Pisa and that it was placed where there were some chains from the defeated port.

I took a lot of photos around the city of Genoa and you can find almost all of them here or by searching in the various article specific to the Ligurian city.
If you want to find some ideas to learn more about the Superba I refer you to the website of the Municipality's Tourism: visitgenoa.it. This is the institutional website of the Municipality: smart.comune.genova.it.
If you are looking for a nice portal that talks about all of Liguria I invite you to visit the official website of the Region: lamialiguria.it.
If you need a good paper guide of the city I invite you to consult these publications: Genova e il Tigullio, Genova. Una guida or Guida indipendente alla città di Genova.
If you are passionate about mysteries and legends then I suggest you read these two books: Alla scoperta dei segreti perduti di Genova and Genova misteriosa.

Si chiama Porta dei Vacca perchè subito dopo esserci entrati, sulla sinistra, c’era la casa dei Marchesi Vacchero, nemici dei Doria. In quanto tali il capo stipite venne ucciso, la casa demolita (ora c’è un piccolo largo) e sul terreno ci fu seminato il sale, perchè non ci crescesse più nulla
