Guinigi Tower

4.5/5(62 reviews)

Gaze out over Lucca from one of the city’s most famous landmarks, a medieval tower topped by a collection of oak trees.

Cathedral of St Martin

4.5/5(47 reviews)

Visit one of Lucca’s most sacred religious icons, an impressive building that is almost a millennium old.

The church of Santi Giovanni e Reparata is a church of Lucca that is located in Piazza San Giovanni.

The first seat of the bishops of the diocese, when the dignity of cathedral at the beginning of the eighth century was transferred to St. Martin remained its right to the baptismal font, and this made the relationship between the two sacred buildings always very close. At the beginning of the nineteenth century the church was destroyed by the Napoleonic government, deprived of its furnishings and destined to house the archives of the ancient Republic. In 1828 it was reopened to worship, but in a very changed situation. The present structure dates back to the reconstruction of the second half of the XII century, but its origins are much older.

San Giovanni Church

San Giovanni Church is just one of the places to see in Lucca, so why not enjoy the other things to explore during your travels? Check out the stunning cathedral and lively bars in this walkable area.
