Bagni di Lucca was very popular with English visitors in the early to mid 1800s. There was a walkway along the river where couples liked to stroll in the evening. One of these couples was Elizabeth Barrett and Robert Browning, who visited Bagni di Lucca in 1849, 1853 and 1857.
Recently part of the riverside walk has been brought back to life and dedicated to this poetic pair.
