Bagni di Lucca

Bagni di Lucca is located in Tuscany, in the province of Lucca along the Valle del Lima. The earliest evidence of human presence dates back to the Bronze Age. Although the Roman presence has left a few artifacts, it can be dated as early as the 3rd century BC. and more stable in the II century BC, when Lucca became an important Roman colony.

The famous Terme of Bagni di Lucca date back to the First Triumvirate of 56 B.C. With the fall of the Western Roman Empire even the baths declined. It was the Lombards to rediscover the beneficial qualities of this place. Over the centuries they have been frequented by celebrities such as Dante, Boccaccio and then Byron, Shelley or Rossini.
