Overview
Livorno is an Italian municipality of 154,177 inhabitants, capital of the province of the same name in Tuscany. The region's third largest city by population (after Florence and Prato), it alone hosts almost half of the inhabitants of its province; with the neighbouring municipalities of Pisa and Collesalvetti it also forms the apex of an 'industrial triangle'. It is situated along the coast of the Ligurian Sea and is one of the most important Italian ports, both as a commercial and tourist port of call. Of all Tuscan cities, it is usually considered the most modern, although there are several historical, artistic and architectural testimonies in its territory that survived the massive bombings of World War II and the subsequent reconstruction.
