City walls of Lucca
City walls of Lucca, City walls in Lucca, Italy
The Walls of Lucca are a complex defensive structure built around the historic center of the city.
Built between 1545 and 1650, they are the second example of modern fortifications in the world.
Today, the walls are a public park and represent one of the most important examples of urban parks furnished in style.
You can walk or bike along the top of the walls, enjoying panoramic views of the city.
Unlike many other cities, Lucca has fully preserved its walls, which have not been adapted for traffic.
