Museo-casa natale di Giacomo Puccini

The Puccini birth house is a residence museum in Lucca that preserves the place where the opera composer was born in 1858. The rooms contain original furnishings, personal belongings, handwritten scores, and important documents from his life and career.

The Puccini family moved into the house in 1815, and Giacomo was born there in 1858 while the family already had three generations of musicians. He left the house in 1880 to continue his studies in Milan and eventually build his career as an opera composer.

The rooms display items from Puccini's daily life and artistic work, offering a glimpse into how the composer lived and worked. Personal belongings and materials throughout the house reveal insights into his everyday existence.

The museum is located in Lucca's old town and is easily accessible on foot. All exhibition spaces are wheelchair accessible, and staff can assist with questions about the displayed objects and visitor flow.

The museum houses a Steinway piano from 1901 on which Puccini composed many of his most celebrated works. This instrument was central to his creative work over many years and was used during the creation of pieces such as Turandot.
