Military Bakery

The former military bakery is situated in Via Francesco Rolla, in the neighborhood of Cornigliano, an area that will be deeply transformed in the next years, thanks to the realization of the Parco del Polcevera, a park near the new bridge Ponte San Giorgio.

The estate is a former mill of the 18th century, owned by Società Italiana di Panificazione, bought by the State between 1909 and 1910 and transformed into a military bakery and barracks.
