You might be free to visit today, but Walls of Lucca hasn't always rolled out the welcome mat! Learn the story behind this stronghold and exactly what it was designed to defend.

You'll be spoiled for sightseeing choice in Lucca Historical Center. Walls of Lucca is a good place to kick off here, but there are lots of other fine places to discover. Piazza dell'Anfiteatro, Guinigi Tower, and Palazzo Pfanner are near the history-filled fortress and will fill in your day nicely.

Villa Cora was delightful in every way. The only negative thing I have to say is that I am not currently still there. Alas, I would highly recommend Villa Cora as a jumping off point for your Tuscan or Firenze adventures.
