Rosignano Marittimo combines a hilltop historic core with proximity to the Tyrrhenian Sea in a way that reflects its geographic position between coastal Tuscany and its inland hills. The Castello di Rosignano and the streets around it retain the compact, fortified character of the older settlement, while the wider municipality extends down toward the shore. Its coastal communities include Castiglioncello, a resort associated with the 19th-century Macchiaioli painters, and Vada, near the broad beaches south of town. This is a useful place for tracing the transition from Tuscan uplands to the Etruscan Coast, with Livorno to the north.
