Piazza San Michele, 55100 Lucca LU, Italy
Beautiful area. Lots to see. Shops, food, even ran into a local second hand sale. Fun area.
My favorite church in Lucca. I am biased though because I worked next to it for years. I just adore this church. Next gets old for me.
San Michele in Foro is a Roman Catholic basilica church in Lucca, Tuscany, central Italy, built over the ancient Roman forum. It is dedicated to Archangel Michael. admission is free. it is noticed by the facade which is very beautiful and which ends at the top with the Saint Michael station. The interior is intensely decorated with monolithic marble columns and among the works of art are Madonna with the Child of Andrea della Robbia and the four saints of Lippi.
Wonderful architecture. Grand, elegant. Not far from the hotel I stayed so I saw it several times a day, and felt so close to it.
Very simple, plain and absolutely beautiful! Purchased a Christmas ornament with the likeness of the church by painted on it
