Gavorrano

Local nameGavorrano
LocationGrosseto, Italy

Gavorrano is a mountain-side comune in the Province of Grosseto in the western Italian region of Tuscany, located about 100 km southwest of Florence and about 25 km northwest of Grosseto. Gavorrano borders the municipalities of Castiglione della Pescaia, Grosseto, Massa Marittima, Roccastrada and Scarlino.

The village is located on the northern slope of Poggio Ballone, east of Scarlino, in an area extremely rich in terms of mining, especially for large deposits of the iron ore pyrite which were intensively exploited until the early 1980s.

The town is known because of Pia de' Tolomei, and for being the birthplace of the writer Giuseppe Bandi, Italian patriot and journalist.
