*𝗦𝗼𝗺𝗲 𝗛𝗶𝘀𝘁𝗼𝗿𝘆*
Lucca was founded by the Etruscans (there are traces of an earlier Ligurian settlement in the 3rd century BC called Luk meaning marsh in which the name Lucca originated) and became a Roman colony in 180 BC. The rectangular grid of its historical centre preserves the Roman street plan, and the Piazza San Michele occupies the site of the ancient forum.
Lucca was an important city and fortress even in the sixth century, when Narses besieged it for several months in 553. Under the Lombards, it was the seat of a duke who minted his own coins. The Holy Face of Lucca (or Volto Santo), a major relic supposedly carved by Nicodemus, arrived in 742.
During the 8th-10th centuries Lucca was a center of Jewish life, the community being led by the Kalonymos family (which at some point during this time migrated to Germany to become a major component of proto-Ashkenazic Jewry). Lucca became prosperous through the silk trade that began in the eleventh century, and came to rival the silks of Byzantium.
During the 10-11th centuries Lucca was the capital of the feudal margraviate of Tuscany, more or less independent but owing nominal allegiance to the Holy Roman Emperor.
After the death of Matilda of Tuscany, the city began to constitute itself an independent commune with a charter in 1160. For almost 500 years, Lucca remained an independent republic.
There were many minor provinces in the region between southern Liguria and northern Tuscany dominated by the Malaspina; Tuscany in this time was a part of feudal Europe. Dante’s Divine Comedy includes many references to the great feudal families who had huge jurisdictions with administrative and judicial rights. Dante spent some of his exile in Lucca.
Lucca had been the second largest Italian city state (after Venice) with a republican constitution ("comune") to remain independent over the centuries.
In 1805, Lucca was conquered by Napoleon, who installed his sister Elisa Bonaparte Baciocchi as "Princess of Lucca".
Today it is considered one of the most beautiful italian/tuscan city and visited by thousands of tourists every year.

Greetings from Satu Mare Romania...thank you for showing the true sometimes gritty side of a destination and not just the artificial touristy side. Your contribution is appreciated! 🙏😎
Thank you my friend 🙌
My spare time i like to sit down and watch those beautiful gorgeous old towns.
🙌
We are very excited and really like your creative ideas, made it enjoyable to watch and keep watching, hope you continue this great idea forever.
Thank you so much Sun, won't stop, it's already 4 years.. but loving this little hobby very much. Glad they are enjoyed!
Lucca città meravigliosa
Stupenda davvero Diego... questo è davvero un video girato tanto tempo fa... ancora non ero molto esperto nel filmare i luoghi. Dovrei tornarci.. ed avevo in mente in effetti di tornare proprio a Lucca la prossima estate se riesco. C'è ancora così tanto da vedere. Città meravigliosa
Just joined Patreon. I adore these walks. Thank you for what you do! Your videos are informative and intuitive.
Welcome aboard Catherine and THANK YOU so much for your support!!! I just wrote to you on Patreon))
Lucca is a rather old video) I hope to go back there again soon in Tuscany))
La mia Lucca. Quanti mi manchi!
Lucca è speciale
#1 on my bucket list. I dream this city because my family is from here. I figured out if I use your video and Google Maps Street View, I can walk along with you and have the ability to look around and from above by pausing your video and switching to Street View. It is a blast. My grandparents were both from Via Vecchia Pesciatina, just beyond the Elisa entrance. I pray someday I will be able to afford to go here and smell the smells and hear the voices and meet with my cugini!
Dear Vicki, what a nice message you wrote, thank you for sharing it here. Great idea with Google Maps Street View, I never thought of doing that actually; very cool idea! Lucca is just stunning.. it's been a lot of times since I was there, and I always wanted to get back ... then with time, I went around it, and filmed nearby cities and towns.. but still plan to film it again and more in full to show other areas as well. Lucca is just magical. I hope you'll succeed to visit it then and meet with the cugini, and hope that dream could be fullfilled sooner than one expects.
A big ciao
RIc
Thank you for bringing back the memories. Beautiful town. Great job.
Thank you Tigran 🙌
I love italy my sistre living in lucca is very nice country i hope living too in lucca i like speaking italiano mi piacci
Grazie mille Housna! Lucca and Tuscany are indeed amazing places... I always go there with the highest pleasure. I will post more about that region soon
Those streets, like the one from the 4:20, the 28:00 or the 1h22:22 mark or so... THIS, to me, is Italy. Calm side streets, that generally lead to some unexpected treasures... these are the places we would talk long walks in when we went to Italy. It makes you feel part of the country, as opposed to being a tourist. And being from Canada, there is ALWAYS something that would catch my eye, simply because it was different from home. A gas counter. A «passo carabile» sign. A great car that doesn't get imported to Canada. A small sandwich shop that would nevertheless have Prosecco on tap (God, I love this country!). An architectural detail. A plaque that I would try to understand. And these covered sidewalks at 10:00 : just like in Padova. This damn pandemic needs to end, so that we can travel and enjoy the world normally again!
Dear Hugo, happy you enjoyed this walk. One of my earliest... I maybe had to focus more on the shops and sides! But glad you enjoyed it. But agreed totally with you on the things seen there... it's the little details perhaps which are the most important in a walk... or the "reality" of it.Ohhhh Padova..would love to go there ... one day... if the channel will grow in numbers and I'll be able economically to move more, I'll definitely go. Indeed... we need the situation to be normal again... it's pretty tense over here these last days for many reasons... Wish you a nice week Hugo, and thank you again!
@@StillWanderer Yeah, I saw the anti-green pass riots in Roma… pretty bad…
@@hugolafhugolaf yup Hugo... Bad times
..social unrest and social problems
So beautiful and thanks for sharing
Thank you Mimi!
Thank you Riccardo, love that city and that region!
I wish I could go back to Tuscany Alice... maybe... maybe in September I hope
A wonderful and lovely walking tour !! So beautiful there and excellent walk 😃👍💕
Thank You 🙌
bellissima Lucca, un saluto da Brescia.
Caro Antonio grazie, stupenda davvero Lucca. Spero di tornarci a breve e vederla meglio ✌️
This seems to be a very fun place, I hope I can visit sometime in the future. Seeing and sharing places like this is why I love traveling and make videos so much!
You should!
Without a doubt one of my favourite places I visit every year and I’m already booked for next September so while I’m waiting il just watch your video love it
Thank you Peter for your kind message. I also love Lucca and all Tuscany. Amazing outstanding region. I hope I'll be able to film more in the future there
🍎 I’m not quite all the way through but I am really loving this peaceful and quiet walk through such an ancient city. I’ve been to Italy a few times but never to Lucca . Thanks for showing us around. - H
Thank You so much Harry, really appreciated. It's not the most touristic city but definitely worth a visit
the place is so wonderful.have a nice day.
Thank you! You too!
⏹ Absolutely beautiful walking tour, nice experience! thank you for sharing! greetings from NYC✌😉
Thank You Guys 🙌
Mí sobrina adorada vive en esa hermosa ciudad, gracias por compartir este video, saludos desde México 🇲🇽.
Gracias a ti Lupita. Lucca es straordinaria! Saludos a Mexico!
Muchas gracias por contestar, que sigas triunfando con tus bellos videos, soy tu fan y seguidora, cuídate 🙂🇲🇽
@@lupitadiaz177 ¡Muchas gracias! Qué lindo recibir palabras así. El canal aún es pequeño ... espero que pueda crecer. ¡Gracias de nuevo! Que tenga un lindo día Lupita
Отлично! Grazie mille 😊😉
Спасибо Таня ! 🙌
super video comme toujours
Merci beaucoup Line 🤞
Beautiful places.. The tour is so much better than google map haha..
Thank You Carlos !
I usually visit it during comic con and this place is full of cosplayers during halloween. Loved you did a video because i didnt visit Lucca this year because of covid
Thank You kokodaich, knew about the comics con but unfortunately never attended. It must be really cool to see. Lucca is a jewel, but I think I should visit it again and walk deeply in it, also visiting some of those beautiful churches. Thanks for watching and have a nice week!
An interesting "citta" with alot of history. I read that it's described as "city of churches" and there certainly were a few. Noticed more bicycles, I guess because it's flat. Hopefully i can walk there one day, in the meantime thanks again for sharing. Enjoyed it, as usual🙂
Thank You Geraldine! Lucca is astonishingly beautiful, and yeah, many bikes there. I wish I would film another film there soon 🙌
Gracias
🙌🚶
We visit our Lucca and stay a while and live like locals. We have met nice people and they became friends. We rent an apt close to this Porta Elisa at via dei Bachattoni on the right from this entrance. So nice to see Lucca via you tube and see familiar places we have to and our favorite places to hang out. Due to pandemic we cx last year but hope to go back soon.
Missing Lucca. 🥰✈️
Lucca is stunning... I was there the first time as a kid with my parents, and when going back there I always look something new and different. It's a shame I only walked once. I'll walk more, maybe in a dusk or night setting, once I'll be able to walk again in Tuscany. Thanks for your message queencafe and wish you a nice week ahead
We are all set to visit Lucca & then the coronavirus happened. Hopefully we get the chance to visit next year. Thank you for the video
Hi Karen, thanks to You for watching! Yeah...it's been quite hard here too... I hope you'll go to visit it. Lucca is incredibly beautiful
We must have walked every street in Lucca many times, love it there, thanks for posting.
Thank You Brian 🙌
Muito bom♥♠♥
Gracias Irene, Como siempre! 🙌
Mi mamá lucchese,está corriendo por allí. .te amo..ma
❤️🙌
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🥰 🦋Brasil RJ
Obrigado Regina ✌️
This town seems to have very little greenery or colorful flowers seen in other places with a few exceptions. Was this simply the area you walked - maybe more of a business area? It has a "big city" vibe -- cement, brick, rock, stucco.
Ciao Sharon, indeed, it's more building ,but also I didn't also walk in many areas... one of the early videos, I didnt' pay much attention to details such as I do now.
I adore Lucca, but was really upset to see the amount of grafitti on the wall , this is sad I wish the government and villages would get rid of the graffiti. I did enjoy seeing some of my favourite places there. Thanks.
Agreed Moira... It wasn't pleasant at all! Lately I have seen this phenomena happening more and more :/
Next year in September I am going to Italy for a month . I am going to visit Rome , Sicilia, Tuscany :))
Halina, cool, love all three places / region. I hope to visit Sicily one day soon. And hoping we'll be able to travel like in the past!
🙌
Abbraccio e successo al tuo canale!
Saludo desde Brasile
Obrigado!
@@StillWanderer De nada!!!!!!
Спасибо за Ваши прогулки. Извините, за небольшое замечание. Если держать камеру немного выше, будет лучше. Ещё раз спасибо!!!
Спасибо за предложение! Спасибо!
Bella :) non ci sono mai stata sarà la mia prossima metà poi il video rilassantissimo ❤ ti volevo consigliare Sant'Oreste vicino a Roma 😎 se non ci sei mai stato un bellissimo paese sul monte dorate ricco di storia con i suoi bunker
Grazie Gloria, felice che sia piaciuta. Una bella sorpresa anche per me devo dire. Ahhh si Sant'Oreste la conosco. Ci andai anni fa...bella idea - la inserisco nella lista dei paesi "da fare". Nel Lazio ce ne sono ancora parecchi... Bellissima idea, grazie ancora 🙏
@@StillWanderer io ci vivo quando passi dimmelo ti offro una cena 😃
@@gloriastucchi444 ahh ma volentieri! Allora ti scriverò rispondendo a questo messaggio (o ho la mail del canale anche!) Grazie Gloria 🤗
@@StillWanderer ok 😘
Hi, please, do you make a walking tour Cappanori ?
Thanks for the suggestion Mary, I'll try when I'll be back in Tuscany once more!
I would like to know when the churches were built and go inside some of them. In the last piazza there was a large round building with a campanile beside it. What was it?
Linda i think it's the Duomo of St. Martin! It's beautiful. Next time I'll go inside when in Lucca!
Hay algo que me pregunto por qué tan solas las calles o es muy temprano ya que veo comercio gracias
¡Muy temprano Camillo! ¡Caminaba a primeras horas de la mañana!
спасибо за прогулку! это сколько времени Вы гуляли? видно город более современный ..хотя эти ворота с аркой аутентичны.. но древних зданий почти не осталось...
Действительно, Елена, многие постройки были заменены. Но Лукка - потрясающий город. Я надеюсь в будущем снова сниматься ночью, если мне снова случится поехать в Тоскану. Я так люблю тоскану.
Хожу вот уже 1 год. Все началось после того, как у меня прошел шокирующий момент ... потом я решил ... гулять, снимать и не думать!
@@StillWanderer по хорошему завидую! я не могу долго снимать...то батарейки заканчиваются ..то память на карте..то глаза разбегаются- что снимать.. что не снимать..
а на какую камеру вы снимаете?
@Elena Pavlovski DJI Osmo Pocket! Конечно, мне нужно останавливать перезарядку amd примерно раз в 1! но это отличная камера!
@@StillWanderer спасибо большое! Я как раз ищу новую камеру.. Моя старенькая 2012 года
great display. ◑﹏◐
Thanks! 🙌
The camera person looks straight ahead all the time. when you enter a piazza why not look left , look right, as you would if you not holding a camera. Also, do you not look in shop windows?
Good tips TMM, in fact on these first videos I was still learning. I'll try to be more receptive in the future and look around more for sure. Thank you for this, at least I know what it can be liked
ا دفنوني في الشارع الي طلع في الدقيقة ٤٢
🙌
OK if you're into being surrounded in tight quarters by stone, brick, and pavement. It gets OLD real fast. After 10 minutes I'm gone. I honestly don't get how people can live like that.
It's a matter of personal taste for sure JM. Having lived in tiny towns and big cities I get it )
