Approaching the center of Sabaudia, visitors are met with the stark, geometric lines of 1930s Fascist architecture rather than traditional medieval alleys. Constructed entirely from scratch on land reclaimed from the wetlands under Mussolini's regime, the urban layout stands as a highly preserved example of Italian rationalism.
The strict urban grid eventually yields to a sweeping Tyrrhenian coastline, backed by natural sand dunes. This coastal municipality is home to roughly 18,800 residents and features Villa Volpi, a neoclassical seaside mansion built in 1952 for Countess Nathalie Volpi of Misurata, which unexpectedly punctuates the wild beachscape.
