Lucca

Lucca
Lucca existed already in Etruscan times and became a Roman colony in 180 BC. The Diocese of Lucca dates back to the first century, legends tell, that St. Paulinus, a disciple of St. Peter, was the first Bishop of Lucca. In medieval times Lucca was the residence of the Margraves of Tuscany. After the death of Matilda of Tuscany (1115), Lucca constituted itself as an independent republic. Actually the "Republic of Lucca" existed from 1160 to 1805.

Walking through the rain to the hotel I saw, that July would be a perfect month to visit Lucca.

Yes, Lucca will be full of people in summer. But there would be as well bright sunshine, very agreeable temperatures, plus music in the evenings...
