• Porta San Pietro - The southern gateway to Lucca’s walls, this is the most grandiose entrance to the Renaissance fortifications. Constructed in 1566, it was built on the road leading to Pisa.
• Piazza Napoleone - Often referred to as “Piazza Grande,” this square has historically been the hub of the city’s political power. Today, it is a vibrant venue for cultural events and concerts, including the Lucca Summer Festival.
• Lucca’s Duomo (Cattedrale di San Martino) - The church’s facade is notable for its asymmetry; one of the arches, dating back to the 12th century, is smaller due to the existing bell tower. Inside, it houses masterpieces like the funerary monument of Ilaria del Carretto, the Sacred Conversation by Ghirlandaio, the Last Supper by Tintoretto, and an altarpiece by Fra’ Bartolomeo. Visitors are welcome to explore the interior!
• Torre delle Ore - Known as “the city of 100 churches,” Lucca’s medieval skyline was also marked by numerous towers built by noble families. These towers symbolized social status: the taller the tower, the more prestigious the family.
• Chiesa di San Michele in Foro - Situated in the ancient Roman square of Lucca, Piazza San Michele in Foro, this church dates back to the 8th century and is dedicated to the Archangel Michael. Atop the church stands a 4-meter-high marble statue of the Archangel Michael, with metal foil wings, depicted defeating a dragon. Legend has it that on sunny days, a glow from an ancient, undiscovered emerald can be seen emanating from the statue.
• Torre Guinigi - Located at the corner of Via Sant’Andrea and Via delle Chiavi d’Oro, this tower is easily recognizable by the trees growing on its top. Standing 45 meters tall, it requires climbing 230 steps to reach the summit.

Though the climb may be challenging, the breathtaking view from the top is well worth the effort!

• Piazza Anfiteatro - This square is distinguished by its elliptical shape and can be accessed through four vaulted doors. Beneath the square lie the foundations of an ancient Roman amphitheater from the 2nd century AD, once the site of gladiator battles.
• Basilica of San Frediano - One of Lucca’s oldest places of worship, tradition holds that it was founded by San Frediano, an Irish prince turned hermit on Mount Pisano, who became one of the city’s first bishops between 560 and 588. The basilica is first mentioned in 685 as “basilica Longobardorum.”
