Magenta-Crocco elevator, Public elevator in Castelletto district, Genoa, Italy.

The Magenta-Crocco elevator is a public lift in Genoa's Castelletto quarter, continuing the Sant'Anna funicular between Corso Magenta and via Antonio Crocco. Its two cars, built by Elevatori Normac, each hold 30 people, cover the 49-metre rise at 1.8 m/s and take 40 seconds. The lower station is reached through a pedestrian tunnel from Corso Magenta, with a second entrance on via Acquarone.

Construction of this lift began in 1929 by Officine Meccaniche Stigler and opened to the public in 1933 when the city took ownership. This marked an important step in Genoa's strategy to improve vertical connections across the city's hills.

The elevator's lower station is reached through a pedestrian tunnel off Corso Magenta, and the same passage serves as a covered route from the lower part of via Acquarone to the Sant'Anna funicular. A small private lift branches off the tunnel to the Antica Farmacia Sant'Anna, the still-operating pharmacy of the Sant'Anna convent.

The ride upward takes about 40 seconds and you can access it through a pedestrian tunnel from Corso Magenta. It operates as a working transport system used daily by people moving between the two levels of the neighborhood.

During World War II the access tunnel served as air-raid shelter No. 7, listed by Genoa's public works office in May 1941: 395 square metres able to hold 790 people, with a drinking-water tank, latrines and lighting. A 1943 municipal document records a 545-metre gallery lined and paved with cement tiles.
