Lake Massaciuccoli, luxury villas and farmhouses for sale, including nature, history and music
In Tuscany, the Massaciuccoli lake
NATURE
Lake Massaciuccoli, in the southern part of Versilia between the provinces of Lucca and Pisa, is an unforgettable encounter with the landscape and nature. Villas and farmhouses of prestige for sale, in an authentic living museum where life, its rhythms and its manifestations, are still ancient and distant, on which it is enough to lay eyes to find architectures and drawings to approach an infinite book.
Sailing on the lake, with organized tours and guided to the oasis of Lipu, one experiences unique experiences in ever-changing environments: sometimes crowded with herds of birds in their frenetic and apparently quarrelsome flights for a place to perch on; sometimes inhabited by some solitary specimens absorbed in his meditations. Through zones and angles suspended in absolute silence, interrupted by the rising in flight of an animal frightened by our presence, or surprised by the sudden appearance at the sight of a clear buzzing and animated life.
HISTORY
Massaciuccoli and its lake are also synonymous with history.
With its beautiful archaeological area located on the shores of the lake and includes the villa, the building with the mosaic and the museum. Here you can visit the remains of the villa of the Venulei family, built at the beginning of the 1st century AD, of which the monumental thermal complex is preserved, situated in a panoramic position from which you can admire the lake and the coast to the sea.
Further down the exhibition pavilion, there is a small spa district with some rooms, part of the heating system and the floor mosaic of the frigidarium, decorated with fantastic animals in black and white tiles.

MUSIC
Between the composer Giacomo Puccini and the lake of Massaciuccoli it was love at first sight: the musician immediately fell in love with the lake and the small village on its shores, which even welcomed him with a welcoming committee upon his arrival in 1891, in small train station.
Here Puccini founded the Club della Bohème with local artists and soon became one of the main actors of the artistic life of the late nineteenth century, first local, then European, during the years of great cultural ferment that crosses Europe, finding in these places the meeting point between these enthusiastic currents of cultural exchange and the pure sensations offered by the contact with the inspiring nature.
Puccini lives in Torre del Lago for thirty years, during which he cultivates his two greatest passions: music and hunting. In his house in front of the lake he composes all his major works, including Tosca (1900), Madama Butterfly (1904), La Fanciulla del West (1910), La Rondine (1917) and Il Trittico (1918).
The Puccini Festival every year fulfills its old desire to listen to his works outdoors on the lake, a large outdoor theater of 3,400 seats, on the shore of Lake Massaiuccoli, surrounded by greenery right in front of the Master's House Museum Puccini where the remains of the musician are kept and where you can admire finds and memorabilia of life and the glorious artistic story of Puccini.
Today the Master's works are staged on the banks of the lake he loved so much, in the heart of the town that, in his honor, has changed its name to Torre del Lago Puccini, in a festival that every year since 1930, in the months of July and August, it becomes one of the most anticipated events of the rich cultural life of Tuscany and the most important Italian opera festival in addition to the only one in the world dedicated to the famous composer.
A prestigious event able to attract thousands of spectators from all over the world, under the direction of important conductors and famous directors of the Puccini masterpieces by Madama Butterfly, Turandot, La Bohème, Tosca and Manon Lescaut.
