Grosseto, Provincial capital in Tuscany, Italy
The city extends across an alluvial plain near the Ombrone River, protected by hexagonal defensive walls constructed during the Renaissance period.
In 1138, the bishopric transferred from Roselle to Grosseto, marking a significant shift in regional power and establishing the city's ecclesiastical importance.
The Archaeological Museum of Maremma contains extensive collections of Etruscan artifacts, regional antiquities, and medieval art from the surrounding territories.
The central train station connects Grosseto to Rome and Florence through regular services, while local buses provide transportation to nearby coastal areas.
The Medicean Walls form a complete hexagonal perimeter around the old town, with ramparts that allow visitors to walk the entire circumference.
