Napoleon's sister, Pauline, built a bridge so she could take the waters at Bagni di Lucca. Puccini stayed at our palazzo by the river.

Loved by the Englsh traveller since the days of the Grand tour, is now a peaceful, serene town with strong links to the historic city-state of Lucca. Set in a fertile river valley framed by chestnut forests and mountains. Bangi di Lucca is the perfect location for exploring this beautiful area of Tuscany.
