You should know that the square was developed like this also thanks to the architect\u00a0<strong>Lorenzo Nottolini<\/strong>, who, in the 19th century, dismantled some internal buildings and built this urban masterpiece. The square has always been a meeting place and reference point for city and political life in Lucca, and in the Middle Ages it was renamed\u00a0<strong>Parlascio<\/strong>, from the verb to speak.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"torre-delle-ore\">4.

Many legends are linked to this bridge because it is a place full of mystery. On the\u00a0<strong>Serchio<\/strong>\u00a0River, not far from Lucca, you can admire the charm of this bridge with one arch out of proportion to the others. Legend narrates that the chief mason who was entrusted with the work, in order to deliver it on time and finish it in a single night, sold the soul of the first individual to cross the bridge to the devil. But the remorseful builder confessed the whole thing to a local cleric and managed to find a solution by having a pig cross the bridge. Outwitted and defeated, the Devil disappeared into the depths of the river.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"mangiarea-lucca\">6.
