Viareggio, Coastal commune in Tuscany, Italy

The city extends along 10 kilometers of sandy beaches on the Tyrrhenian Sea coast, featuring a mixture of public and private seaside resorts.

The Torre Matilde fortress, built in 1541, marks the establishment of Viareggio as the primary seaport for the Republic of Lucca.

The Carnevale di Viareggio, established in 1873, presents large papier-mâché floats that parade along the waterfront promenade during February and March.

The city connects to Florence via the A11 motorway and to Genoa via the A12, with a central railway station providing regional and national transportation.

Viareggio maintains a strong shipbuilding industry, with multiple shipyards producing luxury yachts for international clients throughout the year.
