The ancient wash houses of Rupinaro in Chiavari

Gli antichi lavatoi di Rupinaro a Chiavari

The ancient wash houses of Rupinaro in Chiavari.
Almost by chance, looking for a shortcut to return to the seaside promenade, I discovered that in this small square in Chiavari, Piazza Solari, there are still these ancient public wash houses.
I found some more information, but little, online.

The large washhouse is located in the center of the square, and is composed of 11 individual basins, which develop on three sides around the water tank, which can be inspected through an iron door, located on the short side of the washhouse.

In the centre of a small square that opens up into the maze of alleys between Via Balbi and Via Prè, surrounded by tall buildings, which were restored in the mid-1980s, are the “truogoli di Santa Brigida”, with an elegant metal roof, one of the few survivors of the numerous public wash houses that existed until the 1960s in every corner of the city.

The troughs of Santa Brigida square in Genoa

La piazza dei Truogoli di Santa Brigida a Genova

The Santa Brigida trough square in Genoa.
When you get off at the Genova Principe train station and walk down via Balbi, you can't help but notice this much-photographed glimpse: in this little square, in fact, there remains one of the public wash houses that were once present throughout Genoa.
Furthermore, the little square is very well kept and the houses all around are splendid.
