Galleria Umberto I Torino

In the early 1900s the district was commercial but also craftsman. Next to the entrance to the Gallery, at no. 9 of via Basilica, Aurora fountain pens could be purchased. The name came from the district where the factory was located, which counted up to 200 workers, given the success of the artisanal production of 4 employees, started in Isaia Levi's textile shop, in Basilica street.
