Its sandy beaches and
ragged crags make it the isle for everyone. Thanks to its 86.1 sq.
miles it is also the largest of Italy's minor islands. There is a
maximum length of 16.7 miles from Capo
d'Ortano to Punta
Nera and a maximum width of 11.1 miles from Capo
San Vito to Punta
dei Ripalti. In order to see the entire
panorama you have to reach the top of Monte
Capanne (1019 m). Portoferraio
is the main city of this island which is divided morphologically into
three parts: the western side is of volcanic origin and higher in
elevation; the central part is either flat or with low hills; the
eastern side includes the minerary area. Its millenary history was
written by the Etruscans and by the Romans. The Etruscans were the
first to exploit its metals, while the Romans called it "Ilva"
and built sumptuous villas on it (the best preserved example is Villa
delle Grotte in Portoferraio). But it was
undoubtedly Napoleon who left the most significant mark on the island,
after being exiled there in 1814. Today it is a top tourist
destination. Portoferraio
was founded in 1514 on the remains of a Roman port and was protected
by Forte del Falcone,
Forte Stella and by
Torre Linguella.
There are 7 other villages nearby: Campo dell'Elba, Porto Azzurro, Rio Marina, Marciana, Capoliveri, Marciana Marina and Rio nell'Elba. The island has a total population of 28000 inhabitants and there is a paved road network of 99.4miles; therefore the car is the most practical way of visiting the island due to its size. |
