The bastions of the Fortezza Vecchia (Old Fortress) overlooking the mer et plages give many visitors their first sight of Livorno, the “ideal city” built by the Medici, Grand Dukes of Tuscany.
Today, the Medicean Darsena, the old port of this welcoming city, is a lively meeting place and port of call.
Here Tuscany meets the Mediterranean, to which it is tied by centuries of history, culture and trade.
