Info on Cavo
The port town of Cavo is located on the island of Elba, which is the largest island of the Tuscan Archipelago, and the third largest in Italy after Sicily and Sardinia. Along with eight other islands, Giglio, Giannutri and Montecristo, is part of the Tuscan archipelago national park, the largest marine park in Europe. The island is famous throughout the world for having hosted the French Emperor Napoleon in 1814 during his exile. But its history goes back to prehistoric times, with the Ligurian tribes Ligures Ilvati who gave that called the island works. It was first inhabited by the Etruscans and then the Romans, who have enjoyed the island and its rich deposits of iron and its mud baths. There are a number of clues of the island's past, from archaeological finds, its museums, fortresses and military buildings such as the castle of Volterraio and then to the beautiful Napoleonic residences of 1800 as the Palazzina dei Mulini.
