Entrance to the Museo Fattori, Villa Mimbelli: exhibition of Tuscan artistsLivorno's only public art gallery is well worth a visit, and not only because of the works of art it contains. The setting in itself, surrounded by the gardens of the 19th-century Villa Mimbelli, offers a welcome respite from the traffic noise and the city bustle, as well as a peaceful and shady haven in the summer months.
The Villa Mimbelli itself also deserves a visit in its own right, with its beautiful rooms decorated with frescoes by Annibale Gatti and its splendid staircase connecting the three floors.
