Barga has served as a fortified settlement in Tuscany since the Middle Ages. Set above the Serchio Valley, it looks towards the Apuan Alps and the Apennines, with a compact historic centre shaped by stone lanes and old defensive walls. The Romanesque Duomo di San Cristoforo crowns the town and is known for its distinctive bell tower. Barga is also associated with the poet Giovanni Pascoli, who spent his later years at nearby Castelvecchio. Discover other points of interest through webcams across Tuscany.
