The Palazzo Ducale is an important monument in Massa, located in Piazza Aranci. It was built in the mid-16th century according to the wishes of Prince Alberico I Cybo-Malaspina. Hence it is also called Palazzo Cybo-Malaspina. The impressive façade overlooking the square offers a color scheme of red and white (in the marble and stucco). Beyond the main entrance opens a large courtyard, surrounded by columns, staircases, loggias and marble portals. At the far end is a nymphaeum with a statue of Neptune riding the waves.

Piazza Aranci in Massa is named after the double row of orange trees, which were planted in the early nineteenth century after the hotly debated demolition of the church of San Pietro on the orders of Countess Elisa Baciocchi, Napoleon's niece. In the beginning, sweet citrus trees were selected and strict laws were in place to ensure that tourists and passers-by did not pick the fruits, which were instead given to charities. Over time, less tasty bitter citrus fruits were planted, which turned out to be stronger in winter. Giacomo Leopardi and Giosué Carducci were equally captivated by these trees and mentioned them in letters after visiting the square.

The Rocca di Sala, also known as Rocca Ghibellina, is one of the fortresses in the town of Pietrasanta. The Rocca is of Lombard origin and has great historical and cultural importance. Historical personalities who passed through Pietrasanta and stayed there, such as Charles VIII and Charles V, found shelter in this room. You can already see the Rocca di Sala from the main square in the center of Pietrasanta. In the 18th century it was disarmed and sold by order of Leopold I, Grand Duke of Tuscany. Since then, the Rocca has gradually passed through a state of almost complete abandonment, leading to the loss of part of its walls and of the Palazzo Guinigi, the noble residence located within.
