What makes Night Walking Tour in Lucca a unique experience ?
The discrete charm of Lucca reveals itself, bit by bit, as one strolls through the ancient and narrow streets and stops to admire the stately white marble churches built long ago.
Lucca’s most intriguing and fascinating secrets are hidden within the private walls of the severe patrician palazzos, in the darkest corners of the Romanesque churches, behind the walls of secret gardens, and within the mysterious underground.
We will unveil many hidden gems regarding the art and history of Lucca.
The tour begins by the statue of Burlamacchi on Piazza San Michele, the area where the ancient Roman forum was located. Time to photograph the spectacular facade of the 12th century. Along the way, you will encounter Lucca’s most famous celebrity: Giacomo Puccini, and see the exterior of the building where he was born. Still today, his operas fascinate audiences all around the world!
The tour is bilingual English/Italian
Stroll along to reach Via Fillungo, the main and busiest shopping street of the town where both traditional shops and medieval tower houses are located. Admire the two highest civic towers in Lucca: Torre delle Ore and the very particular Torre Guinigi, which is crowned by seven holm oak trees.
More surprises await, such as the stunning Byzantine-style mosaic on the facade of one of Lucca’s best-loved churches: San Frediano.
The Walls of Lucca are a unique reality in regard to European city planning and architecture.
Built during the Renaissance, today, they are a leading example of Italian fortification.
Just a few steps away from San Frediano church is one of the most beautiful squares in Lucca, Piazza Anfiteatro. The elliptical shape of the characteristic piazza is due to subsequent construction of buildings over the foundations of the ancient Roman amphitheatre
A short walk along more medieval streets and you will reach the Cathedral of San Martino with its unusual and striking Pisa-Lucca Romanesque facade. This is where the tour ends.
