    Why Savona ?


    Savona Station, Erie Railroad (Circa 1909)


    Savona was selected as the name for our community by an employee of the Erie Railroad, working to complete the Corning to Attica line. He was a native of Savona, Italy.

    The images above were taken of the "Savona Station" around 1909.


    Savona, Italy (Courtesy of Bulldog)


    The photo above was taken by Bulldog in 2002 of a side-street in the downtown area of Savona, Italy.

    From Microsoft's Encarta... "Savona, Italy. City and port, northwestern Italy, capital of Savona Province, in Liguria Region, on the Gulf of Genoa. The city is an industrial center, with factories producing iron and steel, machinery, chemicals, pottery, electrical equipment, processed food, and glass. Savona has a Renaissance cathedral, completed in the early 17th century. A Roman town, Savona was destroyed by the Lombards in the 7th century. It was a thriving port in the Middle Ages and was annexed by Genoa in 1528.
    Population 69,800 (1990 estimate)."
