Luni, Administrative municipality in Province of La Spezia, Italy.
Luni extends across 13.86 square kilometers of land between the Tyrrhenian Sea and the Apuan Alps, containing both coastal areas and elevated terrain.
The Romans established Luna in 177 BC as a military stronghold, which later developed into a significant port for marble transportation from the region.
The archaeological excavations in the 1970s uncovered the remains of the Roman amphitheater, forum structures, and numerous artifacts now displayed in the museum.
The municipality maintains its administrative offices at Via Castagno 61, where residents can access public services and obtain local documentation.
The area changed its name from Ortonovo to Luni in 2017, reconnecting with its ancient Roman heritage and historical significance in the marble trade.
