The Porto di Carrara has very ancient roots, deriving from legendary “Portus Lunae”, where the shipment of white Apuan marble destined for Rome and the cities of the empire was embarked on large ships called “naves lapidariae”. Located in the eastern Ligurian Sea, today it is the largest world port for handling stone products and, thanks to its favourable geographical position, it is a natural outlet for many products coming and going, not only in Italy but also in Eastern and Central Europe. Both the port and dry port are served by a rail link that can receive and ship goods by rail that, with its to the proximity of the Tyrrhenian ridge, is very competitive as well as environmentally sustainable. It is also connected with the Tyrrhenian multi-modal bracket and with the Cisa crossing, with two very close motorway exits: Carrara (1 km) and Massa (5 km).
