Parco Puccini

About

"Parco Puccini" is the name of a historic park in Pistoia, which is very likely the most beautiful and historically important of the town. It was realized in the artistic period of Romanticism, perfectly respecting the contemporary ideas, by Niccolò Puccini, a nobleman from Pistoia, in the first half of the nineteenth century. After his death the park was divided into many properties, most of which are small except for two of them that are very well conserved and picturesque: one that is town property and one that is ours. Our park is 15 hectars in extension, dissemitated with numerous monuments and three buildings: "Villa La Fortezza", "The Pantheon of illustrious men" and "The Romitorio". It is available for guided tours, wedding celebrations, corporate meetings and many others, but above all for cultural events.
