Itinerario

1. Meet your guide near the Cathedral of San Martino in the historic center of Lucca to begin a kid-focused walking tour of the city's Middle Ages sights and history. Start at the Cathedral of San Martino, where the beauty of the colors and the intricacy of the designs of its exterior will dazzle you as they did the pilgrims who flocked to Lucca for centuries. Animals, flowers, tales of saints, and a labyrinth will greet you before entering the Cathedral where the ancient wooden crucifix called the 'Volto Santo' (Holy Face) is contained. Through the inquisitive eyes of your child, you will discover all the intriguing legends and miracles associated with these symbols.

   30 min

2. Head for the historic mint where, before your very eyes, replicas of the ancient coins of Lucca will be produced and each child will receive one as a Medieval souvenir. The historic Mint is one of the oldest in Italy (operating since 650 a.C.)

   30 min

3. At the Church of San Michele (Saint Michael), more investigative work awaits. Attempt to uncover the secrets hidden in its spectacular façade, including stories of mythical animals and ancient legends.

   20 min

4. Stroll through the historic center and charming streets of Lucca, such as Via Fillungo and Via Santa Croce, where you and your children will learn to 'read' the façades of the tower houses that once belonged to the wealthy merchants of Lucca. After so much work and mystery, it's time for a well-earned gelato break - and of course, only the best gelato in town will do.

About Lucca

Lucca is a walled Tuscan city of Renaissance ramparts, narrow lanes and an oval piazza, and the birthplace of the composer Giacomo Puccini.

Lucca is enclosed by intact Renaissance walls, about four kilometres around, topped by a tree-lined promenade used for walking and cycling above the rooftops. Within them the medieval street plan survives, with Via Fillungo as its shopping spine and many towers and churches. The Piazza dell'Anfiteatro is an oval square built on the footprint of a Roman amphitheatre, and the Guinigi Tower grows holm oaks on its roof.

Top-ranked sights in Lucca: Piazza dell'Anfiteatro, Lucca Cathedral (Duomo di Lucca), Church of San Michele in Foro (Chiesa di San Michele in Foro).
