National Park of the Tuscan Archipelago (Parco nazionale dell "Arcipelago Toscano)
According to legend, when Venus was born from a wave of the sea, several precious stones fell from her tiara, becoming seven islands off the Tuscan coast, starting with the large Elba (223 sq. km) and ending with the legendary but modest Montecristo (just over 1000 hectares). All the islands of the archipelago, with the exception of Montecristo, today are part of a marine reserve, which exists mainly on income from biological tourism.
The national park was created in 1996 to preserve the unique ecosystem of the islands. In addition to land areas, its borders cover 60 thousand hectares of the sea that washes them. The local biodiversity is based on typical Mediterranean flora and fauna, but there are rare species such as Neptune's brush algae and monk seals, extirpated from most Italian coasts.
In the off-season, bird lovers can watch huge flocks stopping here to rest during flights between Africa and Europe. There are enough permanently inhabiting birds on the islands of the archipelago: large and Pianosa have become home to shy red partridges, and about a third of the world population of the Corsican gull, which has become a symbol of the national park, nests here.
The Tuscan Archipelago National Park is located east of Livorno.
Old Fortress (Fortezza Vecchia)
No matter how strange it may sound, the Old Fortress is one of the youngest buildings in the Livorno embankment area. The Second World War almost completely destroyed the impregnable symbol of city power, created back in the 11th century, and it required more than serious reconstruction. About 60 years ago, the historical buildings were recreated, all possible historical elements were preserved. Visitors are allowed into the fortress territory free of charge.
New Fortress (Fortezza Nuova)
This fortress was built in the 16th century for the Medici family, it is located in the area known as Little or New Venice, because. it is penetrated by a network of narrow channels. Initially, the fortress had the shape of a five-pointed star and was protected by ditches and canals. But the rapid growth of the city beyond the powerful walls diminished their importance, and after World War II, the surviving premises ceased to be used altogether.
Today, behind the red brick fortress walls there is a large city park, which has become home to dozens of stray cats.
Leopold's Wall (Mura Leopoldine)
The growing port went beyond the fortress walls, and by order of Prince Leopoldo II, the construction zone was surrounded by a new barrier. Protection was required mainly from possible smuggling of goods. The wall stretches for 8 kilometers and served the city during its defense against the Austrians in 1849. Most of it was destroyed by the bombing of World War II; only a few fragments survived. At this time, the issue of reconstructing some areas and creating park areas along them is being decided.
Museum of Natural History of the Mediterranean (Museo di storia naturale del Mediterraneo)
The natural science museum is located in the historic Villa Henderson, and its exhibition is entirely dedicated to the biology of the Mediterranean Sea. In 2009, a seed bank was created on the basis of the museum, working together with other large gene repositories in Europe.
The museum is located at 234 Roman Street. It is open from 9:00 to 13:00 from Tuesday to Friday and from 15:00 to 19:00 on Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday and Sunday. An adult ticket costs 10 euros, a child ticket costs 5 euros.
Giovanni Fattori Museum
Dedicated to the work of Macchiaioli artists and named after one of the brightest representatives of this style of painting, it opened in 1994 in the beautiful Villa Mimbelli. The exhibition began in 1877, during the lifetime of active participants in the Macchiaioli movement, and was fully formed in the 30s of the last century.
Villa Mimbelli is located in the suburbs of Livorno, south of the city center. The museum is open from 10:00 to 13:00 and from 16:00 to 19:00 from Tuesday to Sunday. The entrance ticket costs 4 euros.
Cathedral (Duomo di Livorno)
The city cathedral is the main decoration of the central pentagonal square of Livorno. It was built at the end of the 16th century in the style of Renaissance architecture and received the patronage of St. Francis. It is believed that it was this building that inspired Inigo Jones, a pioneer of English Renaissance architecture, to build Covent Garden.
The most striking, in the truest sense of the word, detail of the Cathedral is its façade. It was rebuilt and significantly changed at the beginning of the 20th century; the material was gray stone, significantly different in color from the main walls. The interior decoration consists of several large paintings on biblical themes, and the tombs of two governors who ruled the city in the 18th century are located here. In 2006, the cathedral received a new gate by Antonio Vinciguerra depicting the most significant episodes from the history of Livorno.
Church of St. Catherine of Siena (Chiesa di Santa Caterina)
The tall tower of the bell tower of the Church of St. Catherine dominates the urban landscape of the Nueva Venezia district. This church took a long century and a half to build and began functioning as a Dominican monastery long before construction was completed. During the Napoleonic era, the building was converted into a prison, which was transferred from here only in the last decades of the 20th century. After restoration work, services began here again.
The interior of the church is decorated with 1,500 square meters of frescoes from the 19th century - this is one of the largest surfaces in Tuscany. The choir houses the famous painting by Giorgio Vasari “The Coronation of the Virgin”, brought in 2007. At the side entrance there is a gallery containing a large organ. In one of the chapels of the church there are holy relics transferred here from Cagliari.
Temple of the Madonna delle Grazie
This church building is also known as the Sanctuary of Montenero, it stands on the hill of the same name, is dedicated to the patron saint of the Tuscan lands and serves as the burial place of several famous residents of Livorno.
Despite its rather modern appearance, the temple has ancient origins, beginning with a healing miracle in 1345. Construction and expansion of the temple on the top of the hill continued from the 15th to the 18th centuries. In 1603, a small chapel of the Apparition (Cappella dell'Apparizione) was built for numerous pilgrims at the foot of the hill, and only in 1956 it was replaced by a larger church, from where today the ascent to the sanctuary begins.
The temple complex of the Madonna delle Grazie is located on a rectangular platform, accessible by stairs. The main building is preceded by a portico and several memorial stones. Not far from the porch is a bas-relief by Antonio Vinciguerra depicting Pope John Paul II, installed in honor of the Pontiff's visit in 1982. The interior space is decorated with paintings by Filippo Maria Galletti, the wooden ceiling is decorated with carvings by Pietro Giambelli. The temple is equipped with a three-keyboard organ.
Museum of Jewish Culture and History (Museo ebraico Yeshivà Marini)
The museum is located at 21 Mikali Street, in a 19th-century neoclassical oratory that served as a synagogue. Its exhibition demonstrates examples of Jewish culture and evidence of Nazi persecution in Italy and Europe.
Jewish cemeteries (Cimiteri ebraici di Livorno)
Traditionally, Livorno is home to one of the largest Jewish communities, but they had to bury their dead on the Milinacci beach, until in the middle of the 17th century an area was allocated for this purpose not far from one of the city cemeteries. Ninety years later, a second cemetery appeared in Via Corallo, but in 1939 it was decided to dismantle all the graves and move them to the Stagno area to be combined with the larger cemetery opened in 1837. It functions to this day and contains the memory of those killed in the First World War and the Holocaust.
Naval Academy (L"Accademia Navale di Livorno)
The Military University in Livorno trains officers of the Italian Navy. For two centuries after construction, the building housed a hospital, and later a prison and barracks. The educational institution opened here in 1881 and, in addition to sailors, at one time it also trained pilots.
The main part of the sprawling educational complex consists of a large three-story building with three wings located at right angles. The main building is topped by a square tower with a clock on each side and the motto "Honor and Fatherland". The Naval Academy complex covers an area of about 215 square meters and annually receives 1,250 students for training and retraining.
Monument to the Four Moors (Monumento dei Quattro mori)
This monument, located in Piazza Micheli, is the most famous in the city. Its installation at the end of the 16th century symbolized the revival of Livorno and the construction of new areas. Ferdinand I, whose statue tops the monument, supervised the work and was revered as the founder of the city. The figures of four captive Moors at the foot serve as a symbol of resounding victories over pirates. They are the ones that are of greatest interest from an artistic point of view. Despite their similarity to each other, the images are carefully selected and simultaneously represent four nationalities and four stages of human life.
In the 30s of the 17th century, it was planned to supplement the composition with two fountains, made in the mannerist style and depicting sea monsters, but as fate would have it, they never left Florence, now decorating Piazza Santissima Annunziata.
During World War II, city residents did everything to save their relic: the monument was divided into separate figures, which were hidden in different hiding places. In June 1950, the monument was assembled and hoisted into place, right in the middle of the ruins of the city destroyed by bombing.
Tower on the island of Meloria (Torre della Meloria)
On an artificial island 7 kilometers away, directly opposite the port of Livorno, there is a quadrangular lighthouse tower. It was erected in 1709 and became the third in a row on this site. The island of Meloria, famous as the site of the double battle between Genoa and Pisa, is only slightly raised above the water, so the massive tower rests on four pillars, connected in pairs along the perimeter by arches, so as not to resist the lapping waves.
Teatro Carlo Goldoni
This theater was built in 1842 and is the only one of all the major theaters in Livorno that was able to survive the devastating bombing of the Second World War. The building also houses the Pietro Mascagni Museum, which contains a collection of the maestro’s personal belongings.
There was a long break in the theater's activities from the 80s until 2004, when it was closed for restoration, but was still able to restore its former glory and grandeur. The height of the auditorium is 26 meters, and a glass insert is built into the center of its roof. Initially, the hall was designed for 3,000 people, but after reconstruction, for safety reasons, the number of seats was reduced to 900.
Thermal resort (Stabilimento termale Acque della Salute)
In Piazza Dante (Via Orosi), not far from the train station, you can see an abandoned resort complex. The dilapidated buildings were abandoned several decades ago, after a fire in 1968, and the issue of their restoration has not yet been resolved.
The complex, built in 1904 in the quiet eastern part of the city, consists of three buildings standing on the site of four springs with different types of mineral water. Healing waters were discovered here back in 1854, on the site of an ancient vineyard. To be able to accommodate everyone, the luxurious Corallo Hotel was built nearby.
Despite the decline, the buildings of the former hospital are still of great cultural value, being one of the city's best examples of Art Nouveau architecture. Here you can see wooden frames decorated with fine intricate carvings. Many design elements reflect natural motifs.
Located on the coast of the Ligurian Sea; port and industrial center of Italy. Tourism is not the main activity of its residents; a businesslike, working atmosphere reigns here. Recently, the city has begun to restore its sights, which were thoroughly destroyed by the war, and is becoming interesting to visit.
Terrace of Mascagni
The “musical” terrace of Mascagni (Terrazza Mascagni) is associated with the name of the composer Petro Mascagni, who ran along it as a child and listened to the music of the sea. Today it is a super-equipped area for pleasant walks: how you can easily slide on parquet along an embankment laid out in a checkerboard pattern. Graceful railings separate you from the vagaries of the choppy sea. Round lanterns, a bizarrely shaped platform, a snow-white stone gazebo - everything creates a romantic mood.
It’s not for nothing that newlyweds leave the locks of their hearts on lantern poles here, and throw the keys into the sea as a sign of fidelity to their chosen one. From the gazebo in the park on the Mascagna terrace, the traditional rowing competition among the city's residents begins. Teams from 16 districts organize races on gozzo - 10-oar boats and gozzette - four-oar boats. The Palio Marinaro takes place in Livorno on a hot day in July, on the 2nd Sunday.
The Mascagni Terrace starts from the shipyards and extends to the Aquarium. This is a small aquarium containing 1,200 specimens of marine animals. Particularly interesting are the huge turtles, sharks and stingrays. Parking here costs 2 euros, the entrance ticket is 13 euros.

Livorno is one of the youngest but most special cities in Italy. It is located in a picturesque bay along the Tuscany promenade and is washed by the Ligurian Sea.
The Livorno hills surround the city and give it an advantageous location to attract tourists.
Livorno on the map of Italy is located in the east of the Ligurian coast.
Livorno on the map of Italy
It is a major port, administrative, industrial and cultural center, which is famous for its extraordinary number of attractions and events.
Based on the results of the work of archaeologists, it is believed that the settlement of the modern territory of Tuscany occurred during the Neolithic period. In the 10th century, the Aurelian Way was built between Rome and Gaul. To protect it, a security tower was built, which was located in the bay. After some time, a small village is formed here.
The name Livorno is mentioned in the documentation of 1017. Presumably, this name comes from the word Liburna, which means “fast ship”.
The construction of the port began at the end of the 13th century, after the Pisa harbor flooded, as a result of which the passage of ships there became more difficult.
The construction of a lighthouse in 1303 and a fortress in 1377 marked the beginning of the life of the new port city of Livorno.
The development of the city during the reign of the Duke of Florence gained momentum. The construction of fortifications and the construction of a canal to connect with the city of Pisa is underway.
Beginning of the 18th century – this is a time of prosperity and enrichment of the port. But the end of the century is characterized by some regression due to the capture of Tuscany by Napoleon.
The port suffered great damage during World War II. A huge part of historical monuments was destroyed during the bombing. Over time, some of them were restored.

Beach holiday
The cargo port of Livorno occupies a significant part of the water area, so the beaches in the central part of the city are not very spacious and not very suitable for tourists.

The northern part of Livorno, where the snow-white beach stretches for a long distance to the village of Marina di Pisa, is a good place to sunbathe.
Free beaches in Italy are less common than good roads in Russia.
The beach in the Antignano area is perfect for relaxation. But keep in mind that the terrain here is rocky. This place is unlikely to be suitable for families with children and diving.
An excellent option for family fun is the sandy beach of Cecina Mare. This beach has a fee. Closer to the pine forest there are free recreation areas.

What you need to know about Tuscan beaches?
During the season, the beaches of Tuscany are quite expensive. Since October, the entrance price has been reduced significantly. By paying for entry you get sun loungers, a sun umbrella, access to a shower and a changing cabin. On many beaches you will have to pay extra for hot water in the shower; the fee is 1 EUR per minute. So think about it, maybe hardening is not so bad?
The International Foundation for Environmental Education has awarded 16 Tuscan beaches Blue Flags. This sign is like an Oscar for beaches. "Blue flag of quality" They give for clear water, clean sand, a convenient pier and good tourist service. Beaches received this award San Vincenzo, Forte dei Marmi, Cecina, Rosignano, Camaiore and a few more.
Exquisite Versilia: everything is fine, but not cheap
The Tuscan Riviera (Versilia) is a place where the powers that be relax. Lido di Camaiore, Forte dei Marmi, Marina di Pietrasanta, Viareggio- luxurious beaches that require luxurious expenses. But all expenses are quite justified.
The best beaches of Tuscany (and the surrounding areas;)) give their guests clean sand, perfect service and a lot of entertainment:
- elite yacht club in Punta Alla;
- diving;
- water skiing;
- hang gliding;
- surfing;
- scooters;
- night clubs;
- galleries;
- walks through the pine forest;
- golf course;
- bike paths;
- tennis courts;
- horseback riding.
Viareggio- the largest Tuscan resort town on the Versilia coast. It is surrounded by pine forests, so a week's holiday here can be equated to a month in a sanatorium.
Reviews about local stores and boutiques are diametrically opposed. Some people admire new products from Italian designers, while others note only 2-3 good stores. In general, if you are advised to shop at one of the Viareggio outlets, ask your advisor for the exact address of the store, it’s more reliable.
But the prices here are aggressive: even for 35 EUR per day you may not find a place on the shore. But the nearby hotel provides discounts to its guests: a day on the beach - 18 EUR (the price includes an umbrella and 2 sun loungers).
IN Forte dei Marmi It's better to come on Wednesday or Sunday. Then you will be pleased not only by the amazing vegetation and sandy beach, but also by an excellent market. From 8.00 to 14.00 here you can buy homemade cheeses and wines, souvenirs and... high quality Italian clothes! On weekends there is also an antique market.
When you get tired of splashing around in the sea, you can spend a couple of hours reviewing the local Museum of Caricature and Satire. Open air theater marble warehouse, Villa Puccini- not just the beach, as they say.
Olga (27 years old, Kyiv):
“Looking at pictures on the Internet, we decided to stop in Viareggio for the day. We were afraid that the beach would be too expensive, but we were lucky: the entrance cost only 3 EUR. If you take a seat with an umbrella, then 10, but we decided to save money and sunbathe. At the entrance we were given a key to a cabin where you can leave valuables and change clothes. We have somehow gotten used to the fact that various souvenirs are sold on the beaches. I couldn’t resist here either: I bought a couple of bracelets. But to have a massage right on the shore... Tuscany knows how to surprise!”
Liliya (41 years old, Novosibirsk):
“We went with two children and chose a beach on the coast of Viareggio. We immediately bought a subscription for the entire vacation. This is very profitable: if you pay for entry every day, it will be much more expensive. Finally, I was calm for the children: the entry into the sea is very long, you can literally walk on the water. More than 500 meters the water level remains “waist-deep”. The only negative is that the animation is often only in Italian. Our offspring don’t speak English very well either, so they stayed on the sidelines all the time.”
Elba Island: by ferry to “little Sardinia”!
This island has over 130 beaches! Beaches are suitable for couples with children La Biodola, Fetovaia and Lacona, because there is a smooth descent and there are attractions. For divers, the Elbe is a real attraction, because such underwater “gardens” are truly a rarity.
Where to go in Tuscany?
A causeway connects a seaside town Orbetello with the mainland. The beaches here are of average quality, the shore and bottom are strewn with pebbles. But the lagoon itself is a protected area, because not only tourists, but also migratory birds love to rest here. Orbetello has many shops, delicious cuisine, a majestic cathedral and a lonely stone mill on the water - everything you need to feel like a full-fledged traveler after a week spent on the beaches.
By train you can get to Rosignano. This is the only so-called “white beach” in Europe. The sand here is white, like in the Caribbean. It became this way thanks to the work of the soda plant. The plant has existed here for many years and does not cause any damage to the environment.
They enjoy no less fame. Here you will find the purest golden sand, comfortable sun loungers and sun umbrellas. Most beaches in Rimini have a fee, but are much cheaper than in Tuscany. In addition, there are many outlets and shops where you can buy crazy things at a discount.
Not long ago, a small resort town appeared on the shores of the Adriatic Sea - Lido di Jesolo. People come here to take a break from the metropolis, soak up the sun and swim in the warm sea. Read more about the beaches of Lido di Jesolo.
Budget beach holiday in Tuscany: where to look for it?
Free beaches in Italy are less common than good roads in Russia. Although sometimes there are free areas on paid beaches. Some tourists solve the problem even simpler: they sit on rocks nearby.
And the smart ones Googled it in advance, found this review, made notes on Google maps and now relax without extra costs. Because below is a list of beaches for which you don’t have to pay to enter.
List of free beaches in Tuscany:
La Spiaggia della Lecciona
This beach is hidden between Viareggio and Torre del Lago. Pine park, sand, sea - that’s the whole list of available entertainment.
10 km south of the town of Folonnika there is a small beach called Cala Violina with quartz sand.
Buca delle fate
This beach is hard to get to, but a map would definitely be helpful. You will have to abandon the car on the road along which you drove from Polulonia. Further - on foot through the forest. But the clear water and amazing views of Elba Island are worth it.
Barcola beaches
A whole range of beaches where everyone will find their place. Young parents will choose a safe area with small pebbles, middle-aged people will rush to the beach near the pine forest, teenagers will drag their “ancestors” to Topolini.
There are free beaches south of the Marina di Cecina resort
The scheme is the same: we abandon the car on the road and walk briskly through the forest.
Are you planning a holiday in Tuscany? First you need to choose a beach!
Thinking of going wild on the Tuscan Riviera? Keep in mind that for Versilia, 15 rows of tightly packed sun loungers are the norm. There are no free beaches here; there are only a few hotels with their own beaches. The bottom is sandy and shallow.
Southern Tuscany is simply created for an unpretentious family holiday. On the beaches Livorno, Pisa, Grosseto convenient entrances for children, clean sea and low prices. Most hotels have their own beaches, and public areas of the coast are located nearby. The absolute leader here is San Vincenzo. Here you can not only swim and lie on the sand, but also spend your leisure time culturally (no matter how threatening it may sound). Evening walks along the main street or pine grove, star concerts, constant entertainment events, sports grounds - the complete package!
Do you want to relax your soul and body? Smoke your butt and décolleté in the sun? Nudist beach Santa Maria near Forte dei Marmi is waiting for you.
Do you prefer wild areas? Head for the beach. Its sandy shores are washed by the cleanest water in Italy. This corner is protected from the outside world by beautiful rocks and old pine trees. Once upon a time, salt was mined here. Since those times, a medieval fortress has been preserved here. A great place for those who want to get unusual photos from Tuscany.
Maxim (34 years old, Dubna):
“We chose Livorno based on the price/quality ratio. It’s not as expensive as in Versilia, but the entire infrastructure is at the same level: there is where to go, where to stay, have a snack, etc. The beaches turned out to be clean and well-groomed, rental prices are also reasonable: for two sun loungers and an umbrella, 16-25 EUR, depending on the arrangement of the beach and the location of these same sun loungers. We spent a couple of days at thermal centers - the procedures there are great for toning up.”
Alexander (39 years old, Rostov-on-Don):
“My wife and son were on holiday in Castiglione della Pescaya. Two paid beaches on the shore, everything else is free, come and lie down, no one will say a word. On the 3 free kilometers, everyone can fit in, albeit compactly. True, you have to carry towels, an umbrella and other paraphernalia yourself every time.”
Valentin (31 years old, St. Petersburg):
“During your vacation on the Tuscan Riviera, you can stop by a nudist beach, go on a couple of excursions, or have a romantic getaway in a secluded bay. There will be enough impressions for another office year.”
And in a year you can visit Tuscany again. Still, no one has ever been able to explore all the beaches in one trip.
Relax in style. And don't forget the towels!
