LUNIGIANA
Lunigiana covers an area from the Apennines to the Magra river, belonging in part to Tuscany and in part to Liguria.

The history of Lunigiana is one of passion; of intense creativity but also ferocious battles.
The nearby Gulf of Poets saw the Romantic poets Shelley and Byron set the artistic world on fire and follow in the Renaissance footsteps of Dante and Michelangelo.
Castles in Lunigiana During the Middle Ages, there were 160 castles in Lunigiana, only thirty of which have reached our times in a good state of preservation
