- Montecarlo - Montecarlo is a magical medieval town that sits above the Lucca plain. It has earned the Touring Club’s Orange Flag, a symbol of a high-quality tourist destination.
Famed for the dazzling beauty of its surrounding landscape, it is also known as a major wine-producing area, as its far-stretching vineyards testify. The town’s well-preserved historic centre stands within a splendid circuit of walls on top of a lone hill, which reaches a height of 163 metres above sea level.
This Montecarlo - Tuscany’s rather than Monaco’s - has illustrious roots. It was founded by Charles IV, who had freed Lucca from Pisan dominion: hence the name Montecarlo (Mons Caroli in Latin), meaning Charles’ mountain.
The guide will lead you in the discover of the village.
