The town is one of the most important centers of Valdinievole at the eastern end of the plain of Lucca. There are evidence of human settlements in the valley since the Mesolithic, but is in the Middle Ages that Montecatini develops as a strategic town in the orbit of the achievements of Florence. Lying about halfway between Lucca and Florence was long theater of the heated battles between the two cities. On and off found itself dominated by either. The Medici did not intend to leave Montecatini to Lucca and ordered frequent raids and attacks to weaken it. The thermal waters were known since 1503 but it is only towards the end of the '700 that are built spas: Tettuccio, Bagno Regio and Terme Leopoldine. At the turn of '800 and '900, the spa town attracted famous people such as Giuseppe Verdi, Luigi Pirandello, Pietro Mascagni. The fame of Montecatini grew to the point that it became an active political and cultural center, there were also built nightclubs, fashion shops, classy restaurants. So far, the city hosts a large number of tourists heading mainly toward the bath complexes but also to the nearby tuscan art cities of Florence, Lucca, Pisa, Viareggio, Pistoia and Prato. Along the streets and squares of the city center are several boutiques of the major fashion brands, luxury hotel, award-winning restaurants and beautiful historic buildings including the Town Hall. Through a funicular, dated 1898, starting near the seat of the municipality is possible to get to the historical part of the town situated on the near hills and known as Montecatini Alto.|"Montecatini Terme"
