Uzzano lies in Valdinievole between Pistoia and Montecatini Terme. The village is located on a hill but part of the land is also flat.
Uzzano Castello is the oldest part of the city, and today you can still see well-preserved medieval walls and gates around the town. Today you enter the village through Porta Pille built in the fourteenth century and at the end of Via Garibaldi you can find another medieval gate known as Porta Nova. To admire in the main square the Palazzo del Capitano probably dating to 1200. The Oratory of the Madonna of the Channel and the Oratory of St. Anthony of Padua, together with the Church of Saints James and Martin are absolutely beautiful churches to visit. We remind you that
Giacomo Puccini chose Uzzano to spend some quiet periods of his life there and wrote part of the Boheme, one of his most important works.
Among the
typical products of Uzzano remember the extra virgin olive oil and artichokes. To artichokes in May the village dedicates a party: the Festival of fried artichoke. Even for Uzzano as well as for other towns in the Valdinievole, flowers and plants are an important sector of the local economy.
Uzzano is a small town but offers a lot of events and celebrations. Among these, we mention the most important. In the the event date of Corpus Christi 'Fiorita Uzzano' is taking place on the streets of the historic center with its depiction of sacred images made with flower petals. A wonderful show!
