Coreglia Antelminelli

The route proper continues along the SS 445 through the fertile Serchio Valley to Bagni di Lucca (12km/7.5mi). Those wishing to see more of this pleasant countryside however can make another detour, this time to Coreglia Antelminelli where a rather unusual craft is kept very much alive. Skilled figuristi (literally: "modelers") have been producing plaster of Paris figures here since the 17th century.
