A view of the southern side of the fortress with the “Canaviglia” on the left, the “Molo del Soccorso” just in the middle and the “Mastio di Matilde” towering behind.
On 17th October 1600 Marie de' Medici sailed from here in a galley aptely named “Reale” to arrive in Marseille and then in Paris as queen of France, after the marriage with Henry IV.
Now the jetty is used as a landing for boat tours of the canals.See also: Piazza dei Grani - Scalo Regio - Porta del Duca
