 Genova Palazzo Ducale - The history
The construction of the Palazzo Ducale in Genoa began during the flourishing period of the Republican history of the city.
Genoa was gradually consolidating its economical power in the Mediterranean sea, with the defeat of the Republic of Pisa in the naval battle at Meloria (1284) and the defeat of the Republic of Venice, in the naval battle near the island of Curzola (1298).
Three years later, after the exile of its owner, they acquired the neighbouring palazzo with its tower which belonged to the heirs of Alberto Fieschi, and started the construction of the first nucleus of the Palace, which would be named "Ducale" from 1339, when it became the seat of the first Genoese Doge, Simon Boccanegra.

Almost no one ever went into the Palazzo Vecchio -- getting to the Uffizi queue so you could begin to inch forward toward the ticket office was, and it remains for most people, all important.

And third, there are computer terminals spotted all over the Palazzo where you can get audio-visual presentations (English of Italian) about the areas where the terminals reside, about artwork in the rooms, and about the Palazzo in general.
