About

A mini version of our week-long Lucca summer kids camps. Set on the Via Francigena, the pilgrimage road connecting Canterbury to Rome, Medieval and Renaissance Lucca contained treasures of many forms that contributed to the city’s sophistication and beauty. Children pretend to be pilgrims, discovering signs of the transition from the Middle Ages to the Renaissance as they explore the artistic and natural wonders as well as breakthroughs that inspire innovation in art, commerce, and civic life. Families will get to keep a pilgrim’s journal with notes and sketches about the signs of pilgrims’ in the city. All materials included.
