What to expect

The Torre Guinigi is a 45-meter-high tower in Lucca, Tuscany, built in the 14th century by the Guinigi family. It is a typical example of local Romanesque-Gothic architecture and features a unique small garden at its summit, symbolizing rebirth and renewal. The garden is divided into three flowerbeds with Holm oaks and offers a wonderful view of the city of Lucca and the surrounding mountains. Visitors can climb 233 steps to reach the top and enjoy the spectacular view. The tower is one of the few remaining towers in Lucca and has become a symbol of the city, along with the city walls
