About Gallicano
Gallicano is a village of under 4,000 people at 186 metres in the mid Serchio valley, with the Apuan Alps on one side and the Apennines on the other. It is borderland, and its history was shaped in turn by Lucca, the Este and Florence. The church of San Jacopo inside the old walls holds a glazed terracotta attributed to Andrea della Robbia. On 25 July the feast of San Jacopo brings a palio of papier-mâché floats. The homes sit together, each with one bedroom and a pool.
