Gaeta is a coastal city in the Lazio region of central Italy. It is located on the south-central coast of the country, about halfway between Rome and Naples. The city is situated on a rocky promontory that juts out into the Tyrrhenian Sea, and is surrounded by a number of small islands.
Gaeta has a long and storied history, having been inhabited since the 8th century BC. It was an important port in the Roman Empire, and was the site of a number of important battles throughout the Middle Ages and Renaissance. In the 11th century, the city was ruled by the Normans, who built the Castello Aragonese, a fortress that still stands today. During the 16th century, Gaeta was a major center of the Italian Wars, and in 1632 the city was the site of a famous naval battle between the French and Spanish fleets.
In the 19th century, Gaeta became a popular vacation spot for the Italian nobility, and the city was home to a number of luxurious villas. In the 20th century, the city was the site of a major Allied offensive in World War II, and it was heavily damaged in the fighting.
Today, Gaeta is a popular tourist destination, known for its stunning beaches and picturesque views. The city is home to a number of historical sites, including the Castello Aragonese, the ancient Roman port, and the ruins of the old city walls. Gaeta is also home to a number of festivals and events throughout the year, including the annual Gaeta Music Festival.
