General Information
Location Description
Lucca is an interesting small Tuscan city that deserves to be visited for its beauty and rich historical and cultural offers. A legend tells how the inhabitants of Lucca constructed their city "as if they did not have another worry beyond beauty." A varied and generous landscape, rich with life and silence, surrounded by paths amongst forests, valleys, meadows and picturesque old towns. An island of green and of history, situated in the centre of north-western Tuscany, which enjoys an enviable position: a few minutes of Versilia Sea, less than one hour by car from Florence, bordering Pisa, surrounded by the Appennino Mountains and the foothills of the Alpi Apuane.
Lucca is one of a few cities that still preserve its city walls from the 15th-17th centuries intact, with a length of approximately 4.450 meters. The historical centre is well preserved and possesses numerous medieval churches of notable architectural wealth, next to the towers; one can observe belfries and palaces of admirable stylistic linearity from the renaissance. The Piazza dell'Anfiteatro was built on the ruins of the former Roman amphitheatre, and is unique in its architectural genre. Lucca has been nicknamed "The city of 100 churches."
Like other Tuscan cities, Lucca preserves many works of art, like a real and proper open air museum; an environment that has been realized and enriched throughout the centuries, where new structures have harmonically joined with former ones. Visitors can find ideal examples of this appraisement of the city in the Piazza del Anfiteatro, the Palazzo Ducale, Cathedral of San Martino, in the Piazza Napoleone, form the epoch of the principality of Elisa Baciocchi, and in the public park realized on top and around the city walls. It is also necessary to emphasize the natal house (today headquarters of the museum) of Lucca’s most famous citizen, the great musician Giacomo Puccini.
