La Spezia

The landscape around La Spezia is a steep, wooded Ligurian coast enclosing the Gulf of La Spezia, which has shaped both the city’s compact form and its maritime economy. Sheltered waters on the Ligurian Sea support one of Italy’s important commercial ports, while the city is also home to a major Italian Navy base. La Spezia’s waterfront and hills reflect a long association with shipbuilding and naval activity. The Museo Tecnico Navale preserves models, instruments and other material linked to Italy’s naval past. To the west, rail and sea routes connect the city with the terraced coast of Cinque Terre.
