Seravezza, Marble quarrying town in Tuscany, Italy
Seravezza is a commune in the Province of Lucca situated in Tuscany's marble-rich landscape. The town occupies rolling terrain at 50 meters elevation and developed around centuries of stone extraction activities.
A Roman settlement called Sala Vetitia grew into an important marble extraction center during ancient times. Stone quarrying remained the driving force of its development for many centuries afterward.
The Church of San Lorenzo reflects the town's religious identity and continues to be a focal point where locals and visitors gather. It shapes the everyday rhythm of this Tuscan community.
Regular bus services connect this town to neighboring areas, with the main station in the center offering transportation to Pietrasanta and Forte dei Marmi. Getting around the region by public transport is straightforward and connections to nearby coastal towns are simple to arrange.
The quarries here still use traditional extraction methods passed down through generations and supply sculptors and building projects across northern Italy. This hands-on stone craft remains central to how the place works and what makes it distinctive.
