Lucca is rich in historical luxury properties and carefully preserved landmarks such as the amphitheater, the forum, and the Romanesque churches. According to some historians, the original ancient Ligurian settlement probably owes its importance to the Etruscans. Occupied by the Goths and then by the Byzantines, Lucca then became one of the most important capitals of the Lombard kingdom. Over the years, various domains have followed one another but what is certain is that Lucca was one of the most important cities of the Italian Middle Ages and its grandeur and magnificence is still evident today.
