Levanto, Coastal commune in La Spezia, Italy.

Levanto lies between hills covered with olive and pine trees at the mouth of a river valley, with ridges extending to form coastal headlands.

The settlement originated as Ceula during Roman times, later becoming a feudal stronghold of the Malaspina family before joining the Republic of Genoa in 1229.

The Church of Sant'Andrea displays 13th-century Ligurian Gothic architecture with a black and white striped facade and a decorated rose window.

The town connects to major cities through its railway station on the Genoa-Pisa line, providing direct access to the Cinque Terre villages.

The Amfiteatrof Music Festival presents classical and chamber music performances in June and September, commemorating cellist Massimo Amfiteatrof.
