Bolzaneto, Residential quarter in Genoa, Italy.

Located in the Polcevera Valley, Bolzaneto combines residential areas with industrial zones, surrounded by mountains and connected by the Polcevera river.

The construction of the Genoa-Turin railway line in the mid-19th century transformed Bolzaneto from a rural village into an expanding industrial district.

The Church of N.S. della Neve and the Monastery of San Francesco alla Chiappetta represent the religious heritage of this Genoese neighborhood.

The district offers comprehensive transportation options with access to National Road 35, Highway A7, and a railway station connecting to multiple destinations.

Two fortresses, Fort Diamante and Fratello Minore, stand on the mountains behind Bolzaneto as part of Genoa's external fortification system.
