At the center of the original urban perimeter of the Roman city of Lucca is a very ancient church, San Michele in Foro, located on the area of what was once the Roman Forum. Schedule from 07.40am to 12.00 am from 3 pm to 6 pm

The church is ideally as well as physically in the heart of the ancient Roman town. It is a basilica with three aisles, transept and semicircular apseThe bell tower is above the southern transept.

The facade of San Michele in Foro found in Piazza San Michele is probably the most photographed church in Lucca. The columns in the facade are all different, and the archangel crowning the church.

The Church of San Michele in Foro is the third of the great medieval churches of Lucca and, in my opinion, the one with the most majestic facade. Its upper part was built between the 13th and 14th centuries and is made up of four loggias, made by Lucca workers. On its top stands the statue of St. Michael the Archangel who kills the dragon, Made of marble and almost 4 meters high. San Michele is flanked by two other angels.

Easy to find in the heart of town, this basilica was built over the ancient Roman Forum. First mentioned in 795, the current building was commissioned by Pope Alexander II in 1070. The four levels of loggias on the exterior are truly remarkable. On top of them stands the 4 meter tall statue of St Micheal the Archangel defeating the dragon, flanked by 2 angels. On a sunny day you can see a green sparkle on the statue, which legend says is an emerald planted somewhere in or on it, but it has never been found.From every angle this church is spectacular, so take the time to walk around it and to view it from different places in the piazza.Dwarfed by the basilica and it’s loggia, the piazza of the same name is a must see. Flanked by restaurants and bars you can enjoy coffee, wine, or a meal with a view. On one corner, (via Vittorio Veneto) you will find the Palazzo Pretorio with the clock on the façade and its loggia where you will often find art exhibits or musicians playing. On Sundays market stalls set up in the piazza, street musicians are playing on the corners, and it is just fabulous!
