South of the province of Livorno, situated in an enchanting position on the hills near the Costa degli Etruschi,
Suvereto offers its vacationers both the sea and the countryside.
Suvereto dates back to before the year 1000. Until the end of the 14th century
it belonged to the Counts of the Aldobrandeschi family, who in 1201 granted it
the "Charta Libertatis".
In the 1300's it became the Commune of the Republic of
Pisa, in the 1400's it became a part of the Signoria of the Appiani and during
the Napoleonic Age it was entrusted to Elisa Bonaparte Baciocchi. In 1815 it
became the Commune of the Grand Duchy of Tuscany. The village, with its
charming medieval aspects, offers such interesting sites as the Church of S.
Giusto, the Palazzo Comunale, the Rocca, the cloister of S. Francesco, the
Church dell'Annunziata, the Church della Madonna Sopra la Porta, and the
Fountain degli Angeli di A. Gualdi.
