Review:
Piombino is located on a promontory across from the Tuscan Archipelago, at the border of the Ligurian and Tyrrhenian Seas near Elba Island.
The comune is home to more than 35,000 residents and is one of the major cities along the Etruscan Coast. It is home to a significant collection of architectural wonders, including the 14th-century Casa delle Bifore, the former ship restocking facility Fonti di Marina, and the Cathedral of Sant’Antimo.
Inside the Palazzo Nuovo, the former home of Napoleon’s sister Elisa Bonaparte, the Populonia Archaeological Museum houses Etruscan and Roman artifacts. The city is also a popular site for boaters and is home to natural attractions such as Sterpaia Nature Park and the Orti Bottagone Nature Reserve.
