Lucca, nestled in the heart of Tuscany, is a jewel of history and art. Surrounded by imposing Renaissance walls, the city is a paradise for culture lovers. The Cathedral of San Martino houses the famous Volto Santo, a medieval wooden sculpture that fascinates visitors with its mystery. Strolling through the ancient streets, one reaches Piazza dell'Anfiteatro, where the echo of gladiators resonates among the cafes and artisan shops.
The museums of Lucca are treasure chests of art: the National Museum of Villa Guinigi hosts Renaissance masterpieces, while Palazzo Mansi contains luxurious furnishings and paintings from the Lucca school. Fans of modern and contemporary art will find their mecca in the Lu.C.C.A. - Lucca Center of Contemporary Art.
No less fascinating are the historic churches, such as San Michele in Foro, with its ornate facade that looks like lace made of stone. The Torre delle Ore offers a breathtaking view, while the Torre Guinigi, with its historic oaks at the top, symbolizes the resilience and creativity of Lucca.
Lucca is an open-air stage, where every stone tells a story of art. Visiting it is a plunge into timeless beauty, an unforgettable journey into the pulsating heart of Italian culture.
