Rising near the Porto Mediceo, the Monumento dei Quattro Mori is a striking symbol of Livorno. Commissioned in the early 17th century by Grand Duke Ferdinando I de’ Medici, it features a bronze statue of the Duke flanked by four chained Moorish pirates—an emblem of Tuscany’s naval victories against Ottoman corsairs. The statue is known for its expressive realism, especially the lifelike details of the captives’ faces. Located near key landmarks like the Fortezza Vecchia and the port’s waterfront, it’s an iconic stop for history buffs, photographers, and those seeking to explore Livorno’s maritime heritage. Its harbor-side setting also makes it a picturesque start for strolling the city’s historic canals, known as the “Fossi.”
