Valpromaro is a small village in Tuscany, Italy. It is located in the province of Lucca, between Camaiore and Lucca1. One of the main attractions in Valpromaro is the Casa del Pellegrino, a historic building that now serves as a pilgrim hostel. The building, which was originally the village rectory, still retains its original appearance, with the exception of some alterations and changes to the floor. The hostel, which is open all year round, can accommodate up to 35 pilgrims.
