Rosignano Castle sits atop the hill overlooking the town center. Its origins are ancient: it was first an Etruscan fortress, then a Roman castrum, and finally a medieval fortress, important for its position, which allowed it to control both the hills behind it and the sea. It was also the residence of the Medici family, who strengthened its fortifications with two towers. The castle was not only a fortress, but also encompassed several other buildings: a church, a building of the Archbishopric of Pisa, the seat of the municipal authorities, homes and shops, and noble palaces belonging to the Vestrini, Marini, and Bombardieri families. The latter currently houses the Rosignano Archaeological Museum; Opened in 1996 and spread over three floors, it houses architectural elements and furnishings from Roman villas, underwater finds from Roman shipwrecks along the coast, and various funerary objects discovered in the Etruscan necropolises of Castiglioncello and Vada. Particularly interesting is the reconstruction of a Roman-era domus, complete with furnishings and everyday objects. The museum has an educational approach, accessible each year to thousands of teachers and students of all ages, thanks to guides, multimedia, models, panels, and captions. From Piazzale Vestrini, especially at sunset and on clear days, you can enjoy a magnificent view of Rosignano Marittimo, the coast, and the islands. Ample parking is available in the area adjacent to the tower. Closed on Mondays, open Tuesday through Sunday (9:00-13:00 in the winter and 17:00-20:00 in the summer).

Built in the 12th century, the Church of San Giovanni Battista is a perfect example of Tuscan Romanesque architecture. Located in the heart of the medieval village, it offers a panoramic view of the coast and the surrounding hills. An excellent stop for those seeking historical and natural beauty.

Chioma is a small tourist center (less than 100 residents) at the mouth of the stream of the same name, which forms the border between the municipalities of Livorno and Rosignano Marittimo. It is frequented especially in the summer thanks to the tourist infrastructure it has (beach resort with bar and restaurant, tourist port with moorings and fuel station, sailing, surfing and kayaking schools) and its natural beauty: inside, the suggestive valley of the Chioma stream is immersed in a green environment with woods and meadows interspersed with some farms and a few other human settlements, today less frequent than in the past (as demonstrated by the ruins of farmhouses scattered here and there) and is a destination for hikers and mountain bikers, while the coast offers a crystalline sea with a color that changes from green to blue and beaches characterized by rocks and gravel mixed with pebbles. Chioma is connected via the "old Aurelia" (formerly SS 1) to Quercianella and the capital Livorno, in a northerly direction and to Castiglioncello, Rosignano, Cecina... via both the old and the new Aurelia (SS 1) in a southerly direction. Right at the height of the Chioma bridge, via del Vaiolo branches off [https://www.komoot.com/it-it/highlight/917856], a pleasant, shaded and little-trafficked hill road that climbs up to Nibbiaia, then connecting to the ridge road to Rosignano Marittimo. For the frequent cyclists who travel it, it is an interesting and pleasant alternative (even if at times challenging) to the busy coastal road

Behind the church there is a free drinking water dispenser
