Centro storico is literally the old town of this Renaissance city: Lucca, in Tuscany Region, in Italy. This old town is surrounded completely by a wall and inside it you can see wonderful buildings like Duomo (Cathedral), the square and the bell tower, from where you can see charming views of the town. Also, you can walk around all old town, see the churches, important buildings or only go to a bar/restaurant and enjoy with food and views. For me, the best place in this wonderdul city is Piazza Anfiteatro, a close square surrounded by buildings and with the form of an amphitheatrt. Inside here, you can eat or drink something (we went to Bollicina Bar, which was very good) and children can play in a place without cars, so it is very good for all people. (See also Le Mura di Lucca, Lucca's Duomo, Piazza Anfiteatro, Piazza Napoleone, Porta Sanpietro and Bollicina)

We visited in May and were pleased to see that a new museum has now opened, and it complements and supplements the church quite well. The museum focuses on the life of Santa Gemma and contains many genuine relics of her life, some of which are quite touching. Her fingerless gloves, for example, were worn to cover the marks of the stigmata, and the last bits of clothing she wore show the stains of her death from tuberculosis. In addition, the museum has a first-class collection of relics of other saints. Truly a magnificent array of mementos tastefully arranged in several glass cabinets. The Santuario is just outside the walls and is a short walk from the Porta Elisa.
