Palazzo Pfanner stands as a magnificent example of Baroque architecture in Lucca, renowned for its elegant facade and enchanting garden. Originally built in the 17th century, the palace was later acquired by the Pfanner family, who added the exquisite garden and expanded the interiors. Visitors can tour the opulent rooms adorned with frescoes and period furnishings, then step outside to the terraced garden, which features statues, a central fountain, and a historic lemon house. The garden's symmetrical layout and manicured hedges create a serene atmosphere, perfect for a leisurely stroll. The palace also hosts cultural events and exhibitions, adding to its vibrant role in Lucca's cultural scene. Its location near the city walls provides lovely views of the surrounding area.
