Perched on a coastal promontory in southern Tuscany, Piombino blends ancient history with seaside charm. Just beyond the town, the Archeological Park of Baratti and Populina reveals the ruins of a once-thriving Etruscan city. In town, a stroll through the medieval gateway leads to Piazza Bovio, offering sweeping views of the Tuscan Archipelago. Piombino is also the gateway to Elba, where visitors can sunbathe on pristine beaches or explore Napoleon’s island retreat.
