Montecatini Terme

Built around its thermal springs, Montecatini Terme grew into one of Tuscany’s principal spa towns. Set in the Valdinievole plain between Florence and Lucca, it lies below the northern Apennines and has long been associated with water cures. The grand Terme Tettuccio complex, developed in the early 20th century, is a focal point of the town’s spa architecture, while leafy avenues link the thermal establishments with cafés and hotels. The historic funicular climbs to Montecatini Alto, the older hilltop settlement, where a compact medieval centre looks across the plain. Montecatini Terme is also one of the Great Spa Towns of Europe, inscribed on UNESCO’s World Heritage List in 2021.
