Archaeological site located in front of the sea, between the promontory of Piombino and the coast of the Gulf of Baratti in Populonia.

This archaeological site extends over 80 hectares, facing the sea, between the promontory of Piombino and the coast of the Gulf of Baratti. The Etruscan necropolis reveals, among other things, well tombs (7th-6th centuries BC), but also the acropolis and monastery of San Quirico, remains of the ancient Etruscan city of Populonia. The educational panels help visitors to find their way along the routes that line this former great metalliferous centre of Etruria.

Site étrusque très interessant
Parc archéologique en 3 parties; nous avons seulement visité la nécropole de San Cerbone à laquelle on accède après une marche dans la nature depuis le parking. C'est un site archéologique non loin de la mer où vous pourrez admirer des tombes de l'époque étrusque: il y a plein de tombes dispersés un peu partout en plus ou moins bon état.

Populonia est un site étrusque majeur, même s'il est moins connu que Cerveteri et Tarquinia. Il s'agit en fait de la seule ville étrusque située directement au bord de la mer. Le parc est magnifique, avec notamment ses tumuli et tombeaux dans lesquels il est possible de rentrer (en se courbant). Prenez un guide à l'entrée pour profiter au mieux de ce site archéologique et montez ensuite sur la colline pour visiter la partie plus tardive / romaine du site, juste à côté de la forteresse médiévale.
