Montecatini-Terme —
Montecatini Terme, nestled in the heart of Tuscany, is Italy’s most prestigious spa town, renowned since the 19th century for the healing properties of its thermal waters. Combining Belle Époque elegance with Tuscan charm, this graceful destination invites visitors to slow down, unwind and immerse themselves in its soothing atmosphere.
Must-sees:
- Montecatini Thermal Baths: The town’s historic spas, such as Terme Tettuccio, offer ornate architecture and mineral waters once favoured by European aristocracy.
- Funicular to Montecatini Alto: A charming red funicular carries you up to the medieval hilltop village, with panoramic views across the Tuscan countryside.
- Basilique de Santa Maria Assunta: A striking modernist church in the centre of Montecatini, known for its stained glass and artistic frescoes.
- Tamerici Salts Pavilion: A graceful Art Nouveau structure within the thermal park, blending architecture and nature in perfect harmony.
Culinary culture:
Montecatini is a gateway to Tuscan gastronomy. Taste rustic favourites such as ribollita, pappa al pomodoro and wild boar ragù, paired with Chianti wines. Don’t miss cialde di Montecatini, delicate wafer biscuits filled with almonds and sugar, a local sweet speciality since the 19th century.
Dive deeper:
Montecatini Terme is perfectly placed for exploring Tuscany’s treasures. Florence, with its Renaissance masterpieces, lies just 30 minutes away, while the medieval towns of Lucca, Pisa and Siena are within easy reach. Wine lovers can set out on vineyard tours through the Chianti hills, and those seeking active pursuits will enjoy hiking in the Apennines or cycling along rolling country roads.
Good to know:
Montecatini Terme is about 40 minutes from Florence Airport and an hour from Pisa. The best time to visit is during the summer months, when Tuscany is at its most vibrant, with long sunny days perfect for exploring vineyards, medieval towns and the surrounding countryside. The town itself is walkable, though car hire is ideal for discovering Tuscany’s diverse landscapes, from mountain villages to the Tyrrhenian coast.
