Lavagna gave its name to the stone that Italian schoolchildren wrote on for generations: slate, which came here from the Fontanabuona quarries to be shipped. Today it is a beach town with a long stretch of sand, a large marina and an old centre of arcades and alleys.
Worth seeing are the basilica of Santo Stefano, at the top of a theatrical flight of steps, and Santa Giulia on the hill. Every 14 August the town recalls the wedding of Count Opizzo Fieschi with the Torta dei Fieschi, a giant cake shared among those taking part in the festival.
