Island of Elba Fortress Museum
In 2013 Marciana Fortress in Pisa came back to
its ancient splendour: it is possible again to visit it and
within the bastions you will find the new Fortress Museum, where
you can see copies of weapons from Middle Ages and Renaissance,
samples of crockery taken from the findings in the Fortress and
important papers and documents.
Furthermore, during the historical commemoration in summertime in
Marciana, it is possible to see the Fortress at the height of its
ancient magnificence, thanks to the set-ups around it that make
the audience feel as if they were in the XV century: the ancient
functions are offered under a modern point of view, through a
swords’ exhibition and a panoramic walk which takes advantage of
the strategic location of the panoramic site.
