The bustling town hosts many cultural events over the summer with concerts in the piazza and reenactments of medieval parades. With strong musical heritage the town attracts international musicians during its annual folk music festival and music of all kinds. There is a hospital, shops, supermarkets, restaurants and coffee bars in the town.

Lunigiana is a magical part of Tuscany. The rolling landscape is liberally sprinkled with castles of Medici or Malaspina vintage and for lovers of the coast the sea is only half an hour away. Lunigiana is special and has been likened to a magical kingdom. The golden sandy beaches around Lerici and the pebble coves of the Cinque Terre are ideal for swimming and sailing. The area is criss-crossed with marked footpaths for walks to the hills and mountains. The airports of Pisa, Parma and Genova are all just over an hour away.
