Piazza San Francesco

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

Emerge from Lucca’s narrow alleys into a unique piazza, built on the remains of an ancient gladiatorial arena.

Unwind in the attractive square where Roman gladiators once fought. For one day of the year it is now completely filled with flowers.

A Romanesque-style church filled with many notable works of art and the well-preserved body of an 800-year-old saint.
