Very slippery downhill during or after rain. But well worth it. Keep your siesta time in mind.

Bridge over the tracks of the old funicular railway

Going up to Montecatini Alto with the funicular is a beautiful experience, however from this point begins "the short one", the historic climb on foot along the Via Crucis

Piazza del Mercato in Montecatini Alto, which houses the statue of the poet Giuseppe Giusti. The square is dominated by the Church of Fonte Nuova, famous for its miraculous cave from which a spring flows that allowed the church to be completed during a drought. Every year the Santissima Madre della Fonte Nuova is celebrated here.

Mountain station of the funicular. The view is simply overwhelming.

Funicular up to Montecatini Alto. Nostalgic ride and great view from above.

Cozzile was probably founded at the end of the 12th century around fortification works with lookout and extreme defense functions. Even at the beginning of the 14th century they housed a castellan and a small garrison on behalf of the people of Lucca. Around the fortress a fortified town arose with a structure similar to that of Massa, organized in a "fishbone" pattern on both sides of the road that crossed it and which, exiting at the other end of the town, led towards the Apennines and towards Modena. The houses were grouped into two neighborhoods or "deeds" (Volata to the East, and Cessana to the West of the main road) with the square located to the north and the church to the south. In the city walls, of which important remains are still visible incorporated into the houses built above them, three doors opened: one to the east, corresponding to the entrance to the town of the medieval road from Massa (gate to Massa), one to the west , on the diametrically opposite side (Porta Vecchia)
