By car: if you arrrive to Lucca by car, coming
from Florence or from Pisa north- Freeway A11( BLU LINE),or
if you come from Viareggio - Freeway A12,(RED LINE), you should
drive along the walls (ORANGE LINE) and enter town from Porta
S. Anna.
The historic center (zone of limited traffic)
is closed to private vehicles. Anyway there are many parking
places located near principal Walls access routes, and outside
the Walls.
This is the way to park the car INSIDE
the Walls:
Coming from the " Bretella A11-A12"
Viareggio/Lucca, take the exit marked Lucca. After the toll
booth, follow the signs indicating the center of the city,
pass over the bridge and then take your first right onto Viale
Luporini. Follow Viale Luporini for about 1.5km and you will
reach Piazzale Italia (easily recognizable by the monumental
fountain in the center). Go straight on, then turn to left
at the large square with a circle. If well done, now you will
see the old city walls of Lucca on your right; you are on
the road Viale Giosuè Carducci, go on, until to "Porta
S.Anna" the first you find on your right, where you have
to enter the walls.
There are many payment parking places inside the walls,
where you can leave your car, and reach the Casa dell'Angelo
on foot.
If you come from Firenze Mare (A11), take the exit marked
Lucca. After the toll booth, turn left and follow signs indicating
the center of the city. You will encounter a bridge over the
rail, pass it, and keep the old city walls always on your
right, then follow as above.
Otherwise, if you want to park the car
outside the Walls, please follow the GREEN LINE, direclty
to the large car parking near the Carducci street.
By train: if you arrive to Lucca by
train, you can reach us easily walking for only 10 minutes.
(BLACK LINE)
Leaving the Railway station square go to
the left, on the large avenue "Viale Regina Margherita",
around the Walls.
Follow it for about 200 mts., then enter the town inside the
Porta S.Pietro; then through via Carrara and via S.Girolamo
go to Piazza Napoleone.
When there, keep via Beccheria, then turn right to via Roma,
and after 20 meters on your right you will find the "Corte
dell'Angelo".
Turn on your right again, in this little, little square there
is the "Casa dell'Angelo" at number 13.
By plane: the nearest airport is the
one located at Pisa, only 20 km distant. From there you can
reach Lucca in half an hour, by train or car.
