San Eustachio

Built around the Church of Sant’Eustachio, Sant’Eustachio developed into a hillside settlement in Montignoso, on the northern Tuscan side of the Apuan Alps. Its position connects the marble country of the mountains with the nearby Tyrrhenian coast, where Versilia’s seaside towns contrast with wooded inland slopes. The Apuan Alps are the source of Carrara marble, a stone long used in Italian art and architecture. In Montignoso, the medieval Castello Aghinolfi recalls the strategic role of routes between the coast and mountain valleys. Sant’Eustachio suits a slower exploration of this compact corner of Tuscany. Browse additional webcams from the Montignoso area to extend your view of the Apuan Alps and northern Tuscan coast.
