Known as the \u201cCity of Salt\u201d, Cervia has ancient roots linked to the production of \u201cwhite gold\u201d. Originally founded as Ficocle, it was situated at the heart of the salt flats. In the late 1600s, at the behest of Pope Innocent XII, the town was rebuilt in its current location, in a healthier geographical setting. Since the late 1800s, Cervia has evolved from a town dedicated solely to salt production into a major tourist destination, partly thanks to the development of the resort of Milano Marittima. Today it is a renowned seaside resort.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Landmarks: The Cervia Salt Flats, the centuries-old pine forest of Cervia-Milano Marittima, the historic centre, the Salt Warehouses (17th century), the San Michele Tower (built between 1689 and 1691 to defend the town and the salt), the picturesque Borgomarina and Milano Marittima.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n
