San Pellegrino in Alpe

Highlight • Settlement

A town halfway between Tuscany and Emilia, San Pellegrino in Alpe is located just above the Radici pass and boasts an ancient history. Worth seeing here is certainly the sanctuary of the saints Pellegrino and Bianco, a place of worship as well as hospitable for wayfarers and pilgrims along the road between Tuscany and Emilia.

Pyramids of Passo dell'Abetone

Highlight • Monument

The territory of Abetone has always been a place of crossing of the Apennines, so much so that it is said that it was also used by Hannibal to enter Etruria. The construction of the road dates back to 1766 to unite the Grand Duchy of Tuscany with the Duchy of Modena. During construction, a fir tree so large that it could not even be embraced by six people was felled and from which the name Abetone was born.

Ponte della Maddalena in Borgo a Mozzano, Lucca

Highlight • Bridge

Ponte della Maddalena, which owes its name to the presence of a nearby Maddalena Oratory, is a nice stone bridge on the Serchio river near Borgo a Mozzano, in the province of Lucca.
Compared to the numerous other medieval bridges, this was of great importance because it represented a vital point of crossing the river on the Via Francigena.

Due to its shape and height (38 m.), its wide and particular arch, this construction, considered incredible and almost supernatural at that time, became the subject of many legends.

The Ponte della Maddalena is commonly known as the "Devil's Bridge" because, like many other artifacts that seemed impossible to the contemporaries, popular legend attributed its construction to the devil: the superintendent of the construction, desperate for the delay in the committed works, would have sold his soul to the devil, who negotiated the completion of the works in exchange for the soul of the first being to cross the bridge.
