LIVORNO - Italy Travel Guide | Around The World
Livorno is a port on the coast of Tuscany in central Italy, on the Tyrrhenian Sea. Though not generally seen as holiday destination, Livorno has many travellers passing through or spending a few hours in town as it features on cruise itineraries and is the departure point for ferries to the islands of Corsica, Elba and Capraia. Although overshadowed by nearby attractions such as Pisa and Florence, Livorno is a pleasant enough place to spend a short time and it is a practical base if you have an early or late ferry. The port's English name, dating back to a time of merchant ships and Grand Tourists, is Leghorn.
Livorno doesn't have the long history or quaint medieval centre of a typical Tuscan town. This is because it was purpose-built as a port in the 16th century, designed as an ideal mercantile modern city. Its harbours, fortresses and waterways are testament to the functional planning of the town, while a variety of churches record the presence of merchants from many countries. Nowadays Livorno is a busy city with, in places, a vaguely down-at-heel air, but a bit of exploring soon reveals the town's more interesting sights.
As Livorno is not a particularly obvious venue for sightseeing, a good first stop is the tourist information office on Via Pieroni, between Piazza Grande and Piazza del Municipio (housed in a building like a small shopping mall). Here you can obtain a map, timetables for boat trips and additional information about local attractions.
The most interesting part of Livorno to explore is the 17th-century New Venice district, the Quartiere Venezia, or Venezia Nuova. Surrounded by canals, this was a rather grandiose conception where merchants' houses and warehouses were built with water access. Nowadays there are a few interesting shops, restaurants and bars in this area, where plenty of locals still keep their boats moored. Some of the town's grander architecture can be seen along Via Borra, which runs through the heart of this unusual district. A festival called Effetto Venezia takes place here each summer.
The Scottish writer Tobias Smollett died in Livorno in 1771 and is buried in the town's historic Protestant cemetery. This is usually only open by special arrangement, but you can peer through the gate or over the wall to see the clutter of stone monuments filling the leafy graveyard. Smollett's Journeys Through France and Italy (available on the Project Gutenberg website) is a very entertaining read and full of tales of villainous innkeepers. The cemetery (Cimitero Inglese) is alongside Via Verdi, with its gateway on a side-street, almost opposite the junction with Via Adua.
Other sights include the 'old' and 'new' brick fortresses, both dating to the 16th century and encircled by water - the walls of the Fortezza Nuova now enclose a park, closed in recent years. The town's cathedral was rebuilt after Second World War bombing; inside is a painting by Fra Angelico, displayed in the Cappella del Santissimo Sacramento. Other historic churches are scattered around the town. Livorno has a city art gallery, the Museo Civico Giovanni Fattori, housed in 19th-century Villa Mimbelli, and also an aquarium. If you are spending time in Livorno, it may be worth purchasing the Livorno Card which includes local transport and museum admission; details can be found on the council website.
A boat trip around Livorno's canals (fossi) is an entertaining way to see the town; tours run several times a day and some include extra attractions such as a visit to the market. Sights along the canals include the market and churches including the lovely but crumbling Dutch-German church, the Chiesa degli Olandesi (near Piazza Cavour).
Via Grande, a street lined with modern arcades, cuts through the centre of Livorno, from Piazza della Repubblica to the Porto Mediceo, and is a useful place for a spot of high-street shopping. Bus number 1 from the station follows this route. The wide Piazza della Repubblica has views across the canal to the Fortezza Nuova, and is a majestic open space. After touring the centre of Livorno, visitors can enjoy a walk along the seafront to the south of the town centre, beyond the port district, where the seafront road passes parks, bathing establishments and little harbours.
Livorno has a choice of cheap and moderate restaurants where you can eat seafood and traditional Tuscan cuisine. The canal area is a good place to start - options include the informal Sugo at Via Borra 51. Livorno has a large purpose-built covered food market, open Monday-Saturday mornings, where you can find local produce. The grand 19th-century market building stands alongside a canal and is a picturesque as well as lively sight. Specialities to try in Livorno include ponce, a drink composed of coffee and rum, and cacciucco, a hearty local seafood stew.

scenes from Piazza del Municipio (Town Hall Square) in Livorno, Italy
This brief video gives some sense of the Piazza del Municipio (Town Hall Square) in a regular Italian town not completely given over to tourism. Livorno is the port where cruise ships dock for people visiting Pisa and Florence and Tuscany in general. Livorno isn't a real tourist destination itself. This square is where the free shuttle buses from the cruise ship pier let out tourists venturing into town. The tourist office is located here as well as a police station and the chamber of commerce. The date is November 30, 2018 and we are on a Viking Western Mediterranean Cruise and off to see Pisa later in the day. Came into town to get a geocache.
