The visit starts at Piazza Aranci,
which preserves an obelisk and a fountain from the 19th century,
and Palazzo Cybo Malaspina. Walking along Via Dante, you get
to the Cathedral, built in the 14th century and restructured
in the 17th century, though the modern façade is from
1936. |

The
inside of the Cathedral is Baroque and houses works by Benedetto
Buglioli and "Sant'Anna con Maria Bambina" by Pinturicchio.
Beside the Cathedral is the Museo Storico di Arte Sacra, where
you can admire church ornaments, precious gold-works and many
art works. Entering the Porta Quaranta, you can walk along the
old walls to the fortress from where you have a marvellous view.
In the Medieval fortress you find the Palazzo Malaspina from
the 16th century.
In the surroundings, at the Alpi Apuane, with a spectacular
view, you find the San Carlo spas. It is here where the Aurelia
water is bottled and from here you can take one of the several
trekking trials if you want to discover the mountains.
