garfagnana
The Garfagnana is between the Apuan Alps and the Tuscan Apennines, in the province of Lucca. The Romans settled in Garfagnana in the first century BC but probably the territories of the Garfagnana were already inhabited. Julius Caesar in 56 BC subjected the population and built the Via Sarzanese, a road connecting Lucca with Massa. When the Roman Empire fell, the Lombards settled in the beautiful castle Aghinolfi in Montagnoso. In the fifteenth century Lucca tried to conquer territories and some important members of the Garfagnana, like Castruccio Castracani, allied to the Este family of Ferrara for autonomy and freedom from Lucca. In the sixteenth century the great poet Ludovico Ariosto ruled the Garfagnana territory, at that time part of the Duchy of Modena and Reggio. In the mid-nineteenth century the Garfagnana passed to the province of Massa and Carrara, but many were those who during this period emigrated to the United States and Australia. The Garfagnana is in the province of Lucca since 1923.
