Another entrance to the town

Old Barga is a town in the Provence of Lucca situated in the heart of the Serchio Valley.  She has many villages surrounding her but she is the mother of the region.  The official history of the area is documented from the Neolithic age but documented from around the Tenth Century.  This is the area from where our ancestors came .
