The term "Golgi bodies apparatus" was used in 1910 and first appeared in the scientific literature in 1913, while "Golgi bodies complex" was introduced in 1956.

In most eukaryotes, the Golgi bodies apparatus is made up of a series of compartments and is a collection of fused, flattened membrane-enclosed disks known as cisternae, originating from vesicular clusters that bud off the endoplasmic reticulum.

Golgi bodies apparatus tends to be larger and more numerous in cells that synthesize and secrete large amounts of substances; for example, the antibody-secreting plasma B cells of the immune system have prominent Golgi bodies complexes.

The compartmentalization of the Golgi bodies apparatus is advantageous for separating enzymes, thereby maintaining consecutive and selective processing steps: enzymes catalyzing early modifications are gathered in the cis face cisternae, and enzymes catalyzing later modifications are found in trans face cisternae of the Golgi bodies stacks.
