Parks in Livorno

Historic Parks & Gardens

Livorno's historic parks and gardens reflect the city's 19th-century aristocratic heritage and neoclassical urban planning. This collection includes Villa Mimbelli, home to the Giovanni Fattori Civic Museum, and the Parterre, a neoclassical garden designed by Pasquale Poccianti. The list also features the Art Nouveau architecture of the Terme del Corallo and the expansive 63,000-square-meter grounds of Villa Corridi. These sites preserve unique botanical collections, monumental conservatories, and architectural landmarks ranging from romantic-style estates to former luxury thermal spas.
