Arsenale, Medieval naval arsenal in Amalfi, Italy.
The Arsenale consists of two parallel stone galleries with cross vaults supported by wide columns near the Amalfi beach.
Founded in 1059, this naval arsenal played a central role in ship construction during the maritime dominance of the Republic of Amalfi.
The Museo della Bussola inside the Arsenale displays artifacts, including specimens of Tarì currency and historical regatta costumes from 1955.
The structure functions as both a museum of maritime history and a venue for civil ceremonies with direct access from the town center.
The building remains one of the few preserved medieval shipyards in Italy, featuring original Arab-influenced architectural elements in its vault design.
