The most important archaeological site of the area and the most relevant in Italy for the Etruscan civilization is located in Populonia and is a real open-air museum that can not be ignored. To truly immerse yourself in the daily life of this ancient people we recommend a visit to the burial mounds or newsstands that perfectly tell the customs and traditions of the time. Populonia is the only city that the Etruscans have built on the sea and its Acropolis dominates the Gulf of Baratti, offering an unparalleled panoramic view.
