Name: Loft in Forte Stella, built by Cosimo de' Medici in the 16th century
Address: Portoferraio

Forte Falcone played a key defensive role over the years. Now a historic attraction, you can just imagine some of the spectacles its fortified walls have witnessed.

Forte Falcone is an ideal place to begin discovering Portoferraio Old Town. This history-filled fortress comes recommended by fellow travelers, but it isn't the only thing to do here. Save time for other attractions like Sansone Beach, Isola D'Elba Tennis Club, and Capo Bianco Beach to really experience what the area has to offer.
