Immersed within the regional park of the Po Delta, the Cervia salt pan is an area dedicated to environmental protection and enhancement, currently active in the production of sea salt. It is the northernmost site in our country, with a history dating back to Roman times when they began harvesting salt and accumulating it in acervus, pyramid-shaped mounds. Hence the name of the locality, Cervia.

Cervia salt is integral sea salt, as its origin is the seawater, which is brought into the salt pan through the inlet canal. It is then evaporated and concentrated until it reaches the actual salt production. Integral because, once harvested, it is exclusively washed with water of high saline concentration.
