The Port of Trieste is a port located in the Adriatic Sea in Trieste, Italy. It is one of the most important commercial port of Italy with a trade volume of 62 million tonnes. Subdivided into 5 different Free Areas, the port is articulated in various terminals that are managed by private companies.
Today, those who visit Trieste will find a blend of cultures and languages of Europe, with a rich literary legacy and a city that’s lured great authors from Ranier Maria Rilke to James Joyce.
