Let's face it! Arriving in Piombino, an industrial town whose economy is based mainly on its steel mills, is not exciting. However, the old town, which rises towards the sea from the Bovio esplanade, has its own charm. Once a principality of the Appiani family, Piombino was governed in the early 19th century by Elisa Bonaparte, Napoleon's sister. Its fortified character does not lack elements to confirm the existence of a city turned to war with its keep(torrione), its pivellino and its palazzo Nuovo of the XVII century. Facing the island of Elba, it is from Piombino Marittima that we embark to reach the Tuscan archipelago.
