Lunigiana regional economic and tourism trends

Overview

The Lunigiana region in Italy is experiencing a complex economic landscape marked by a divergence between its tourism sector and its demographic and industrial health. Reports indicate that tourism arrivals increased by 11% in 2025 compared to 2019 levels, bolstered by a 13% rise in foreign visitors. The region also promotes sustainable travel through its museums, castles, and local culinary traditions.

However, these gains contrast with significant regional declines. Since 2015, the population has decreased by 6.2%, resulting in an aging demographic where pensions constitute 38% of total income. The industrial, retail, and construction sectors have all seen notable declines in business numbers over the last six years, even as the services sector has grown.
